Avestria Ventures Information

Seeding women's health and life science ventures We founded Avestria Ventures with the belief that opportunities to invest in female entrepreneurs in women's health and the life sciences are being overlooked. With women making 80% of household healthcare decisions and comprising 80% of the healthcare workforce, we believe female entrepreneurs may possess the insight needed to identify and successfully solve the industry’s unmet needs. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area and Beverly Hills, we seek out early stage businesses with a product or service that utilizes technology and/or data to improve the quality of healthcare, improve access, lower costs or empower patients. In order to achieve commercial success, these businesses must be evidence-based, induce clinical or behavioral change, possess scalable commercialization plans which account for healthcare policy, reimbursement and the existing infrastructure and possess a sustainable competitive advantage.
