We are highly respected and trusted by both the entrepreneurs and investors we work with – and look forward to continuing to partner with visionary leaders that have bold ideas.

We are financially minded, first and foremost, investing in big markets, talented teams and great products. But we also bring the insights and connections that come with being part of McKesson, one of the country’s leading healthcare organizations. We help our portfolio companies access McKesson, as well as tap into our relationships with key stakeholders throughout the healthcare ecosystem including pharmacies, payors, providers and manufacturers.

Our Values

Venture firms don’t often talk about their values, but we do. We believe finding the right investors for your company is one of the most critical decisions an entrepreneur will make. We promise to be open and honest at every stage of our relationship. We are aware of what we know and what we don’t know – but most importantly, we know how to find the answers. We will be there for the ups, the downs and everything in between. We work hard to support you – bringing our network, experience and insights – because we are also passionate about making the healthcare system work better – for everyone.

About McKesson

McKesson has a long history of innovation and excellence within health care dating back to 1833 when it created the first national drug distribution system in the United States. Since then we’ve grown, evolving into one of the largest healthcare companies in the world with over $220 billion in revenue. While distribution is still at the core of what we do, we have become true partners with our customers leveraging technology, data and analytics to deliver the best care possible. We have a deep understanding of what it takes to scale innovation in healthcare and continually look for innovative ideas and partners to make healthcare more efficient, effective and human.
