Healthcare, oncology-led
We back breakthroughs across medicine, with the deepest conviction — and the most capital — in oncology.
Healthcare venture capital
Backing the breakthroughs that redefine patient care.
UB Ventures is an early-stage healthcare fund with deep conviction in oncology. We partner with visionary founders turning rigorous science into therapies — and we're proud to be the first check.
Who we are
A partner, not a line on the cap table.
We invest in early-stage healthcare companies addressing the most critical challenges in medicine, with oncology at the heart of our focus.
Beyond capital, our platform brings strategic guidance, operational expertise, and a deep network — turning peer-reviewed science into therapies that reach patients.
How we invest
Disciplined conviction, a few clear principles.
First check, early
Pre-seed and early-seed conviction. We back teams before the consensus does, and we stay hands-on.
Team first
Visionary founders with operational excellence and real scientific acumen — our number-one criterion.
Portfolio
We invest quietly.
We keep our portfolio private by design.
Our founders are building at the earliest, most demanding stage of company-making. We'd rather they spend their attention on the science and the patients than on being a logo on a website. When the time is right, their work will speak for itself.
Building in healthcare?
Five slides. One conversation away.
We keep it simple and we move fast — early conviction is what we do.
