Medvest UK LLP is a Venture Capital Fund headquartered in Thavies Inn House, 3-4 Holborn Circus, London, EC1N 2HA, United Kingdom. They specialize in Equity investments, focusing on Seed, Startup, and Early Stage companies. Their expertise lies primarily in the domain of digital health, driven by the belief that the pandemic has significantly altered the landscape of medical care. Medvest UK LLP understands the urgency for the development and adoption of digital health services to meet new patient needs, particularly in terms of treatment, diagnostics, and monitoring outside of traditional healthcare settings. Their investment strategy is centered around accelerating portfolio companies to commercialization within a common ecosystem, aiming to obtain significant or controlling stakes in each, and providing individualized strategy assistance, including leading them to funding rounds. Medvest UK LLP invests in companies that meet three critical criteria: those that improve safety and efficiency in the medical space, as well as patient treatment. Their portfolio includes hospital-based patient care and digital health companies that enable testing and monitoring in point-of-care or at-home settings. Intellectual property protection is a key consideration for Medvest, with portfolio companies holding one or more patents registered in multiple territories, some having separate distribution partners, while others share common partners across different territories. They boast a team with extensive experience, comprised of operational staff and a medical advisory board who are hands-on with the companies on a daily or weekly basis and hold backgrounds in startups, IPOs, M&A transactions, and life sciences. Their team has been working together for over a decade, emphasizing a dedicated and unified approach to medical investing and management, with a focus that extends from hospital products to home care, lifestyle health, and digital health and MedTech products and services.
