Medical technology can help address these challenges by improving patient outcomes while reducing the overall cost of care. The Health Economics Fund invests in innovative medical device, diagnostic and digital health companies in Europe and North America with products on the market or in late-stage development that have the potential to deliver meaningful clinical and health economic impact.

The Health Economics Fund is one of three investment strategies within EQT Life Sciences, formerly LSP. Over more than 30 years, EQT Life Sciences has raised approximately €3.5 billion across 12 private funds, invested in more than 150 companies and helped bring over 100 medicines and technologies to patients. Embedded in EQT, its multidisciplinary team combines expertise in medicine, science and investing to support companies developing the next generation of healthcare innovation.
