Frequently Asked Questions
What sectors do you invest in?
We're agnostic to sector as long as your company is addressing a clear root cause problem. Whether you're building a deep-tech or biotech company or focused on healthcare delivery, as long as you can make durable progress towards improving human health, we can back you.
Our portfolio includes companies doing everything from pollutant abatement to developing new medicines and diagnostics to making healthcare more accessible for underserved communities.
What rounds do you invest in?
We usually invest in the first or second institutional round of financing that a company raises, and typically before companies have reached a $50mm valuation. In practice, this means we usually invest in Seed and early Series A financings.
How much do you typically invest?
Our typical first check is usually between $1 to 2.5mm, though we can flex up or down from this depending on the stage of the company. We generally seek at least 5% ownership when we invest.
Do you lead investments?
While we prefer to lead or co-lead financings, we can also participate as a follow-on investor.
Where do you invest?
Most of our investments are in the United States, but we can invest anywhere in the world for the right opportunity.
How do you help your partner companies?
There are hundreds of leading scientists, clinicians, and industry executives in the MBX Atom Network. This enables us to match our companies to relevant domain experts who can unlock customer relationships and provide tactical advice throughout their journeys.
What are your Assets Under Management?
As of 6/4/24, our AUM was in excess of $100mm.
