We are a highly experienced team with a long-standing track record of entrepreneurial and investment success. We do this by turning break-through science into approved medicines or medical products.
We start and invest in early and mid-stage companies with a first-in-class or best-in-class approach.
Our investments are focused on new drug discovery across all modalities, med tech, enabling technologies and vaccines.
About
As entrepreneurs and experienced, pragmatic investors, we bring the intellectual capital of our well-connected team to support each investment.
We take a hands-on approach and work in close alignment and partnership with our management teams to realise their vision with the goal of achieving superior financial returns by bringing innovation to patients.
Team
Innovation.
We are backing exceptional innovation early.
Since the year 2006, Advent-backed companies have brought fifteen innovative medicines and products to approval with our initial investment often being as early as Seed stage or Series A.
As the mid- and late-stage clinical pipelines of our portfolio companies continue to grow, this number looks set to increase each year.
