FAQ About LDH Investments



How do you choose which companies to invest in?



We're looking for companies that can deliver significant advantages to patient care, costs and convenience - broadly defined. Naturally we prefer large markets, but many of the opportunities we fund will be new (and unsized). We're looking for management teams that are passionate about improving the health system and building company value.



Do you fund start ups?



We fund start ups and businesses that are already off the ground and ready for true acceleration. Our criteria is to fund companies for 12+ months.



Who are the mentors and how do they get involved?



The founders are the primary mentors of the companies. They hold regular meetings with companies and coordinate the structured modules. In addition, we bring on specialists in certain areas (law, marketing, finance, etc.) to host open sessions for all of the portfolio companies and for one-on-one attention. Many of the investors also have experiences that are valuable to startups and accelerating businesses. Lastly, our fantastic and growing Advisory Board brings additional deep understanding of the healthcare and technology sectors.



What should be included in an application?



A good start is a basic business plan, slide deck and projections. Make sure it includes all of the basics, including, but not limited to, the problem you are addressing and your solution, some basic market sizing, your development timelines, your go-to-market strategy and a forecast of the revenue, costs and profit potential of your business. You should also include the background of all team members and some discussion of the competitive environment.



I submitted an application. What happens next?



Awesome, you're on your way! We may contact you with questions or to discuss particulars of your application and business plans. We review applications when we receive them and will short-list applicants for in-person presentations. Funding decisions and funding are expected to be made for companies shortly thereafter.
