Working Upstream is Our Moat
We go to great lengths to understand each company’s mission, business potential and founder motivations. By immersing ourselves in their vision, we better align our capabilities and resources, leading to a more impactful relationship that goes beyond investing.
On average, we spend 10 months with founders before investing.
A System for High Potential Companies
To create value, our strategy has been to execute a focused and repeatable model for producing high growth companies that disrupt or create entirely new billion dollar markets.
We focus on science-driven founder communities with great potential to improve lives and generate large-scale results.
Investing at the Point of Proven Science
Because we work upstream, we are positioned to invest where and when the science behind the solution is established and poised to scale.
Strategic Advantages in Non-Science
Our goal is to equip founders with advantages they can't find anywhere else. That's why we dedicate time and solutions to company building functions like fundraising, marketing, hiring and strategy.

From Day One with Iambic
“Freeflow has been with us from day one. They have always stood firmly by us, from the term sheet they submitted at the beginning of the pandemic in March ‘20 through to the present day. David was in the board meetings and supported our vision of a technology-powered drug discovery company. As we went out to raise our Series A, Freeflow was instrumental in helping us to prepare materials and navigate the process.”

CEO and Founder, Appia Bio
Partnering with Appia Bio
“By the time Freeflow invested in Appia Bio's seed round in July 2020, we had built a great working relationship and alignment over months of discussion. We were introduced by David Baltimore, Nobel laureate and president emeritus of Caltech, who now serves as chairman of Appia Bio. They have been strong partners to the company ever since, advising on office and lab space, recruiting and hiring, and providing introductions to potential future investors. In April 2021 Freeflow participated in our Series A, continuing their steadfast support. We've been really pleased to have Freeflow as an investor, as a participant in our board and strategy meetings, and overall, as a true value-add partner.”
