Our Strategy

BioGeneration Ventures (BGV) was launched in 2006. We manage over EUR 250 million across four funds. BGV invests in medical and healthcare innovations that have high potential to positively impact patients.

BGV works with an ethos founded in sound novel science. We seek those innovations that have a truly differentiated scientific basis, supported by convincing experimental data. These innovations must be compelling and stand out in the global scientific arena.

Only innovations that can address a significant unmet medical need are considered for investment. We aspire to invest in solutions that provide substantial healthcare impact.

Progressing a project from discovery to clinical proof-of-concept requires a breadth of experience that founding teams usually do not have from the outset. Through our extensive network and experience we help founders build their companies to extend their capabilities.

We guide our portfolio companies along their journey from the scientific discovery to a targeted product development track. Together with the founders, we seeks to shape the companies and define the objectives that enable a successful exit.
