Team
We are experienced life science investors dedicated to translating novel scientific breakthroughs into clinically and commercially meaningful therapies. With over 100 years of combined operational experience, there is no hurdle we haven’t already faced and overcome. We serve as funders and operational partners as our portfolio companies grow, and we have a proven track record of bringing approved drugs and devices to patients.
Proven
Strategy
We invest in early stage, therapeutic-oriented companies across the life science spectrum, as well as opportunistic late-stage companies. Our over-arching goal is to find breakthrough therapies that have the potential to change the practice of medicine. We are thesis-driven and committed to seeking out novel, disruptive and defensible technologies to meet unmet clinical needs.
Proven
Results
We believe that innovation, not incrementalism, drives significant exits and successful financial returns. Our investment team has led deals resulting in 19 acquisitions and 20 IPOs over the last two decades. We help our portfolio companies execute their business plans and see their visions become a reality. Additionally, our strong ties with key players in major life science companies facilitates strategic partnerships and acquisitions.
Lightstone Ventures was founded in 2012 and leverages over 100 years of combined operational experience to empower founders with vision and commitment to bring innovative therapeutics to patients in need.
Company Builders
The Lightstone team collectively has over 75 years of experience in the venture capital industry, and nearly 100 years of operational experience. The team has been part of start-up ventures from inception through liquidity and plays a critical role in helping to source, evaluate, guide and build successful healthcare companies. We have the resources to provide significant seed-stage funding but know that fostering successful companies does not just mean writing a check. We not only back successful companies financially but we partner with them, bringing a long-term mindset. Our team works hands-on with founders to help establish a strategy that can transform their vision into commercially viable products. We are operational partners who do not simply provide guidance for a board seat but leverage our experience to help founders navigate the day-to-day functions of their organization.
A Clear Directive
Using a thesis-driven investment strategy, we focus on understanding key market sectors and seeking out disruptive technologies while building and nurturing relationships with key thought leaders. Additionally, our global footprint with offices in the U.S., Ireland and Singapore allows us to build a network with non-U.S. strategic and financial funding sources, as well as exploring novel development and commercialization strategies in these geographies.
Steady, Proven Track Record
Members of the Lightstone team have been involved in several of the largest venture-backed life science exits over the last decade including: Ardian, Acceleron, ALX Oncology, Calithera BioSciences, Claret Medical, Disarm Therapeutics, MicroVention, Nimbus, Plexxikon, Portola Pharmaceuticals, Promedior, Proteolix, Ra Pharma, Tizona Therapeutics, Twelve and Zeltiq.
