Vesalius Ventures

Vesalius Ventures is a venture capital firm founded in 2002 and based in Houston, Texas. It invests in early- and mid-stage healthcare technology companies, with a stated focus on medical informatics and technology, including telemedicine. The firm describes its approach as partnering with entrepreneurs and management teams as they develop and grow healthcare businesses.

Investment criteria centre on three areas: technologies the firm considers compelling, management teams it considers exceptional, and market opportunities it describes as large unmet needs or emerging markets. Sector interests span healthcare, medicine, medical informatics, telemedicine and health technology more broadly, with attention to what the firm terms evolutionary or emerging technologies in healthcare and medicine.

The firm's activities are organised across several entities. Vesalius Ventures Accelerator supports the development and application of evolutionary technologies in healthcare and medicine; Vesalius Capital Group covers capital-related activity; Vesalius Health Advisors is the advisory arm focused on health and medicine; and Vesalius International supports technology development and application on an international basis. The stated aim across these entities is to accelerate the future of medicine.
