Philosophy

In the past decade, humanity has gained the ability to
Store data on DNA
Reprogram cells to kill cancer
Train computers to read medical images
Write in the code of life
Engineer microbes to fix nitrogen for crops
What makes all this possible?
The Moore meets Mendel moment
What it Means
We believe we are in the early chapters of a new biological revolution.
Data from novel Bio-Tools plus Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning are generating major new insights in biology.
These insights will create the next generation of biological products. And we upend the way we heal, clothe, consume, and protect.

Our Process

  • Themes

    Sydney Brenner said it best: “Progress in science depends on new techniques, new discoveries and new ideas, probably in that order”. As long-time investors in novel data-generation techniques, we are in a privileged position to identify major new themes and big ideas that emerge from this data. We prioritize areas with high potential for 'first-in-class' or 'best-in-class' applications.

  • Research

    We dive deep into our core themes, and focus on identifying major unmet needs. OMX has a mature network of founders, colleagues, and researchers who help us every step of the way to find standout companies and ideas.

  • Select + Invest

    When we see clear best-in-class solutions with a clear market fit, we invest early and get to work. We strive to earn the right every day by being reachable and generous with time, while at the same time having the technical and detail orientation to be more than a friendly ear. As part of your due diligence on us, we encourage you to reach out to the founders we have partnered with. 

  • Who

    Anyone, anywhere! Many of the entrepreneurs who we support are first-time founders. For some, this is their third or fourth go round; and for others yet, this is their third or fourth time working with us.
