About The Fund

City Hill Ventures, also known as Grumman Hill LLC, is a venture capital firm based in San Diego, California. Launched in 2010, they focus on revitalizing people, planet, and perspective by investing in transformative sectors such as biotechnology, cleantech, and media & entertainment. Originally a healthcare-focused investor, City Hill Ventures has grown to support ambitious companies that promise global change. They employ a venturepreneur approach, which encompasses founding new companies around innovative products or technologies (Found), funding both these new ventures and existing companies with strong management (Fund), and taking an active role by leading these companies (Lead). This strategy involves concentrating capital and expertise on a select number of portfolio companies at a time, which has led to generating outsized returns. Their investment sizes within a company range from $100,000 to $20 million. City Hill Ventures operates two funds: Fund I (City Hill Venture Partners I, LLC), which is a healthcare-only fund with nine investments generating a DPI of 11 in its initial seven years; and Fund II (City Hill, LLC), an evergreen fund actively investing in industries with the potential for significant impact. They have a track record of both active and successful passive investments, often co-investing with leading private and public health care investors. City Hill Ventures is strategically positioned in one of the world's leading biotech and life science clusters, leveraging their expertise in equity, with specialties in seed, startup, and early stage investments to foster growth and innovation in their chosen industries.
