Synchrony Bio believes there is significant opportunity to achieve consistently superior investor returns in early-stage biomedical and life science ventures. Our model is designed to overcome historical gaps and challenges in the medical device and diagnostic ecosystem. Synchrony’s model is built on 3 pillars: seasoned talent, staged investment capital, and process efficiencies.  Alignment of all three is critically important for medical device and diagnostics ventures, where margins for error are very thin.

We leverage deep industry experience and technical expertise to pinpoint early-stage ventures in under-served healthcare sectors where our significant ongoing support can maximize efficiencies and produce superior returns.

The effectiveness of the Synchrony Bio model was demonstrated fully with our first Fund. We efficiently sourced high-quality deals, performed deep due diligence, closed investments (7 total in <9 months), and added significant value to our early-stage portfolio.

Fund II will apply the same approach, including a diversified portfolio with early stage deals in sectors aligned with our expertise, and more mature deals from any healthcare sector, made available to us by our close network of large institutional investors.

Synchrony Bio was established based on a long-term vision. The early success of Fund I has quickly generated additional interest and support for a larger follow-on Fund II, attracting new partners, investors and advisors.
