Sapient Network
The Sapient Network, is a distinguished group of healthcare experts comprised of physicians, executives, entrepreneurs and professionals.

In this day and age, there is no shortage of available information. When information is understood, it becomes knowledge and when good judgement is applied to knowledge, it is wisdom. We are quick to recognize the limitations of our own ability to understand all the information, which may affect a company's prospects. To enhance understanding and judgement, we look to and call upon the Sapient Network.

The Sapient Network members assist the fund through their understanding of markets, scientific industry developments and identifying investment opportunities. In addition, the Sapient Network helps companies understand trends and to build connections within the healthcare industry.
