About HLM Venture Partners

HLM Venture Partners is a Boston-based healthcare-focused venture firm with more than thirty years of history investing across digital health, healthcare services, and medical devices, currently deploying out of an active fund with checks generally in the $5M to $15M range for Series A and B rounds. The partners have deep healthcare operating and investment backgrounds and the firm is comfortable leading or co-leading rounds. Healthcare exposure is the entire mandate, with active themes around value-based care enablement, behavioral health, women’s health, healthcare AI software, and tech-enabled services. AI focus is current and credible where it supports a defensible commercial software business. Founders best suited are Series A-stage CEOs with $1M to $10M ARR, a clear payer or provider buyer, and a need for a healthcare-native lead investor who will take a board seat and contribute to commercial strategy. Founders who do not fit include pre-product seed teams, therapeutics, and consumer wellness without an enterprise buyer. Geographic preference is US, with a slight Northeast and Boston bias but no hard regional constraint. The entry path is warm introduction through a portfolio CEO, a Boston-area healthcare operator, or a co-investor at firms like .406 Ventures or General Catalyst’s healthcare practice. LinkedIn outreach with a focused metric-led summary can work for founders with strong traction. Expect a thoughtful, traditional Series A diligence process and a long-term board partner.
