Overview
A life science and deeptech fund unlocking the power of the endocannabinoid system
ÓSKARE CAPITAL, has launched the first AIFM and ESG compatible Venture Capital fund with an investment focus on innovative companies and teams in Europe working on novel therapeutics (cannabinoids and other molecules) that target the endocannabinoid system as well as the ‘picks and shovels’ of the associated ecosystem of services and products that support this fast-growing global market.
We are the first fund taking this approach and have a unique pipeline of deals. The Fund will invest in startups across the entire value chain (from Seed to Patient) but will not invest in cannabis production or recreational cannabis.
