About

1315 Capital provides expansion and growth capital to commercial-stage healthcare services, medical technology, medtech & pharma outsourcing, and health & wellness companies. We believe that these investment areas are attractive largely due to numerous niche market sub-segments and business models where high-quality management teams can rapidly grow small platform companies, in a capital efficient way, into large and important businesses. The firm targets $10-$40 million investments in commercial healthcare entities that we believe have the potential to scale to approximately $100 million of revenue, a level we believe is highly attractive for acquisition or to access the public markets.
