About us
In 2018 Dutch healthcare had no shortage of innovation. What it lacked was capital that understood both healthcare and technology. Healthcare investors were cautious about technology. Technology investors underestimated how healthcare works. We started a fund to close that gap.

What we stand for
Impact is measured, not claimed
If you call yourself an impact investor, you should be able to prove it. We measure what our companies change, we publish the numbers, and if we cannot substantiate a figure it does not appear in our report.
Healthcare cannot grow its way out of this
More money and more staff will not close the gap. Care has to be organised differently, and that takes companies that take work out of the system instead of adding to it.
Technology is never the point
A product only matters when it is used. Clinical evidence without implementation changes nothing, and neither does AI without a place in the working day.
Someone has to go first
The hardest years for a healthcare company come before the evidence, the reimbursement and the revenue. That is the phase most investors avoid, and it is the phase we choose.
Returns and impact reinforce each other
Solving a real healthcare problem creates economic value for society. If it does not, the model does not work at scale. We built Healthy.Capital on that assumption and we publish the numbers that test it.
Let's talk about collaboration.
