Lightstone Ventures

Lightstone Ventures is a global venture capital fund dedicated to translating novel scientific breakthroughs into clinically and commercially meaningful therapies. We invest in biotech and medtech companies pioneering the big ideas poised to transform patient outcomes. We were founded in 2012 to empower visionary entrepreneurs with the resources and operational guidance necessary to bring innovative therapeutics and technologies to the people who need them most. Our investment team has led deals resulting in 19 acquisitions and 20 initial public offerings over the last two decades. We have offices in Boston, Mass., Portola Valley, Calif., and Dublin, Ireland. We don’t just invest in ideas. We invest in people. ▪ Our experience spans all stages of company growth Our team collectively has nearly 100 years of company-building experience. We have been part of start-up ventures at all stages and played a critical role in evaluating, guiding, and building successful healthcare companies. ▪ We are partners in company building Fostering successful companies does not just mean writing a check. We not only back our companies financially, but we also partner with them to navigate their day-to-day functions. Our team works hands-on with founders to help establish a strategy that can transform their vision into commercially viable products. ▪ More than investors – we are guides We invest with a long-term vision and patient capital that will fund the company through its life cycle from start-up to commercialization. Using a thesis-driven investment strategy, we focus on understanding key market sectors and seeking out disruptive technologies while building and nurturing relationships with key thought leaders.
