    Description:

    Founded in 2005, Aphelion Capital, LLC makes public and private investments in the medical technology industry. Its primary areas of concentration are technologies that reduce the costs of the burdened healthcare system, and health and wellness products that target the patient as the consumer. Aphelion Capital invests in medical technology companies across all stages and therapeutic areas, but strongly prefers investments in companies with low capital requirements and short time lines to market. The Fund is generally a long term investor in companies that the partners believe have superior products and strong management teams. Aphelion prefers private investments where the team can partner with the company to enhance success and value appreciation. The firm will lead $20 million syndicates, or invest as little as $50,000 on a seed company.
