Our Story
“Life sciences is a unique segment, where niche sector expertise is critical for providing effective consulting support”
Dr. Judith J. Smit (CEO) and Dr. Henk Viëtor (CBO)

The life science sector is experiencing prosperous growth. Numerous new technologies are invented and valorised every year. The demand for translating technologies from the lab bench to the clinic is very high, while the path to success is challenged with many scientific, regulatory and financial hurdles.
At FFUND, we bring over 60 years of combined entrepreneurial experience in the segment to help our clients accelerate their R&D roadmap, with the ambition to enable more technologies to reach the market. We support them as a true “impact partner” with a solid know-how of the sector dynamics, financing opportunities, technical expertise and a network of stakeholders.
We are convinced that a balanced financing mix (non-dilutive, loans and equity) is crucial for a successful life sciences company. FFUND is the partner to unburden our clients with this complex task and secure a successful financing strategy. We are an end-to-end partner, covering our client’s financing need from start-up to commercialization or exit.
