Performance is More Than Just Great Returns To Our Investors. It Is Also Measured By Impact.
We partner with founders and diverse teams that are passionate about delivering transformative therapeutic products for patients.
We are engaged partners, leveraging the strength of our experience and broad network, to work closely with co-investors and management teams to maximize the value, growth, and impact of our companies.
We ensure each investment is done the right way - based on a process of sound diligence, collaboration, and encouraging alternative views, while ultimately being tied to a consensus decision that aligns with our investment objectives.
We utilize the deep relationships within our network to facilitate our due diligence and value-added processes, to provide our companies with the incremental insights, tools, and opportunities they need to succeed.
Building on our commitment to enhance patient outcomes through the development and commercialization of innovative therapeutic solutions, we strive to invest across the stage continuum in biotherapeutic and medical device companies that are generating tangible impacts across one to four key areas.
Creating products that disrupt the treatment paradigm by offering new solutions that resolve current therapeutic limitations and have the ability to target “un-treatable” diseases.
Addressing unmet medical needs and providing access to greater care within disproportionately impacted and vulnerable populations.
Advancing treatment options while generating more effective therapeutic outcomes for patients suffering from disease.
Lowering the overall cost of care and freeing up scarce healthcare resources to be re-directed to those most in need.
The mission of the Lumira Foundation is to support community-based initiatives where we live, work and invest. Each initiative we support is identified by a member of our team, portfolio company, and/or our investors, with a focus on actively engaging with those stakeholders, and addressing prevalent and ongoing social needs in communities throughout the areas where we work and invest.
Since 2017, the partners at Lumira Ventures linked our goals of supporting impactful community initiatives with the performance of the investments we make on behalf of our investors. To achieve this, we allocate part of our carry to support the Lumira Foundation and other healthcare foundations in the ecosystem. As the first firm to pursue this strategy, we see this as an opportunity to diversify our support and create a strong social impact.
