Great businesses. Good humans. Making the planet better together.Let’s reimagine the art of possible. Let’s defy the odds together. In 2018, we launched Northpond Ventures. Northpond’s aim is to build a better tomorrow for our fellow humans. We are a mission driven, multi-billion dollar science driven investment firm. We work very closely with academic partners including Harvard (Wyss Institute), MIT (School of Engineering), and Stanford (School of Medicine). I have been a student of and investor in some of the best public and private companies globally for over 20 years.Learning how to invest in long term excellent businesses left a lasting impression on me. I grew up learning from a Warren Buffet caliber investor who never talked to the press- Frank Sands, Sr. His way of investing made so much sense - long-term investing with a focused portfolio. And reasonable valuations. We looked for great businesses first.While investing in the best public companies on the planet, we also built out a growth company. Sands Capital grew 30X+ from $1.5 bil to $50 bil in assets under management over my 15 years at the firm from 2002-2017. Over that time I sat in every function of the company: analyst, portfolio manager, West Coast client relations, and became the company’s first CFO.Thank you for connecting!
