Epic Capital Management is an asset management firm based in Toronto, Ontario, with a focus on health technology venture capital investments. Founded in 2000, they originally started as a hedge fund manager, but over the years, they have expanded their portfolio to include multiple types of investment funds. They manage hedge funds, which are investment vehicles that aim to achieve high returns by using diverse and complex strategies including leveraging, derivatives, and short selling. Their offerings include an Epic Fund, which is tailored toward opportunistic strategies to capitalize on market inefficiencies. Additionally, they offer a Closed-End Fund designed to provide investors with a fixed number of shares, not redeemable from the fund itself. Alongside, they have venture funds in the form of limited partnerships - LP I, LP II, LP IIA - indicating a series of investment vehicles structured to invest in promising start-ups in the information technology and technologically driven sectors, with a special interest in health tech innovations. Epic Capital Management is known for its discreet approach to asset management; however, their tailored funds aim to create significant returns. The firm's investment strategy is characterized by a stringent selection process, with both a minimum and maximum investment size of $8,770,000, implying a highly targeted and selective investment approach to ensure alignment with their investment thesis. Their closing remark, 'Quiet firm, Epic returns,' suggests a focus on delivering strong financial performance rather than a prominent public profile.
