ENO RIVER CAPITAL's core expertise lies in technology commercialization. We help people with great ideas to acquire the many additional resources they must have:
- In order to turn their discoveries into compelling products or services, and
- Realize a profit in the marketplace for themselves and their institutions.
In addition to providing investment capital at the earliest stages of a company's life, when finding institutional money is often very difficult, Eno River Capital brings extensive experience in intellectual property licensing and deal-structuring, years of operational experience working with early-stage venture-backed companies and the wider venture community, and a wealth of other relevant business contacts.
We invest primarily in the areas of information technology and life sciences, although we have also enjoyed some notable successes in hardware, materials science, and industrial-process technologies.
Our team's technical skills and venture backgrounds are particularly strong in the areas of:
- Application of novel pattern-matching algorithms to the analysis
of large proprietary databases ("data-mining"), including products
for:
- Research and Discovery in Genetics, Proteomics, and Related Fields
- Early Detection/Diagnosis of Cancer
- Transaction-Review and Healthcare Fraud-Detection, and
- Risk Management.
- Regenerative medicine, tissue engineering, and biomedical coating technologies
We generally begin working with inventors and discoverers around the time early patents are filed. We often participate in developing the written Business Plan and recruiting the initial Company management team. We usually organize and lead the first institutional financing, then participate in subsequent financings as well.
We are highly selective and typically take on no more than three or four new projects each year - because once committed, we often stay involved as investors and/or Board Members for five years or more. If you believe you or your institution could benefit from Eno River's long-term, comprehensive value-creation approach, please contact us.
