Invest in
impact.
We are an investment advisory platform with nuanced knowledge and unbridled passion for the organizations we support.
We believe that purpose and profit are not mutually exclusive and independent outcomes. We are firmly committed to seeking and investing in organizations that benefit lives and leave a positive mark.
Seek the extraordinary
We seek to invest in extraordinary companies doing transformative work. Our investment portfolio is defined by companies we believe in—companies creating impact at scale.
Embrace our knowledge
We focus on our differentiated investments on partners in healthcare and technology because we understand these areas exceptionally well and we have an informed and intimate understanding of the needs and complexities of stakeholders. Our founder built and grew one of the most successful technology companies in Baltimore history. We understand what prospective partners needed, and we know our deep industry experience can help drive the missions of others forward.
Remain relentlessly disciplined
We embrace a thoughtful and smart approach to investing and managing risk. We’re careful about how we invest, and we are guided by the trust and success of our partners and advisors. A disciplined mentality has helped us outperform the market relative to the risk we’ve taken.
Think beyond the checkbook
We choose to focus on people and relationships above all. As business leaders, we learned early-on that trust and reputation is everything. Audacious is built around an extensive network of extraordinary people. We partner with those we believe in and our partners believe in us. We are not simply a checkbook and nobody here will ever be a number on a spreadsheet. Investing will always be personal to us.
Our Values
We are oriented by four operating principles. Individually they are important, but together they define what we value and how we invest.
