The BVF Approach

Built on collaboration.

The Blue Venture Funds were designed to enable Blue Plan collaboration around innovative companies that drive value for both Plans and their Members.

Our engagement with participating Blue Plans throughout the investment lifecycle leads to a distinctly Blue investment lens, driving investment in companies operating in markets where Blue Plans are looking to partner.

We leverage our Advisory Groups, representing different disciplines within payors and providers, to review and provide feedback on investment opportunities. Once we have partnered with a company, these groups are formally engaged to help entrepreneurs develop their product.

We have learned what it takes to effectively drive change in the healthcare ecosystem, and work hand in hand with our portfolio companies to bring that expertise to evolve a great idea into a high performing business.

We focus on fostering valuable connections between our portfolio companies and our Blue Plan partners, leveraging our deep network of healthcare industry experts to help our companies grow.

Leaders in commercialization.

For over a decade, the Blue Venture Fund team has worked closely with participating Blue Plans and our portfolio companies to bring innovative products and solutions into the healthcare system.

Insights from our Blue Plan partners have led to the design of repeatable, effective programs that drive the commercialization and adoption of our portfolio's solutions.

We work hand in hand with our portfolio companies to help them understand and prepare for the most important elements of the health plan contracting process.

Long-term mindset.

In line with the Blue Venture Fund’s focus on long-term strategic partnerships, we emphasize relationship building and focus on helping entrepreneurs.

We respect and understand what it takes to build a business and are committed to partnering with innovators throughout the entire lifecycle of a company.

We are partners throughout the process. Our long-term, partnership mindset informs everything that we do, and we believe it is the key to success for any business.
