Ecphora Capital invests in early-stage medical technology companies based in Maryland. We have invested more than $30 million across 15 companies, and we like meeting founders early, often long before they raise.
Headquartered and operating in Maryland.
Medical devices and diagnostics first, alongside therapeutics and digital health.
Data, plus validation from outside your company: research labs, hospitals, agencies or strategic partners.
A realistic regulatory pathway, a reimbursement plan and a clear picture of who pays.
Founders who know the problem deeply and know which gaps they still need to fill.
What this round buys: the milestones it reaches and what comes next.
Based in DC or Virginia? We invest only in Maryland companies today, but our network spans the whole region, and our MedTech Investor Map can point you to medtech co-investors nationwide.
We invest through a single-company fund (SPV) that Ecphora forms and manages. Everyone in it comes into your round as one entity.
Fifteen years in the BioHealth Capital Region: its programs, funders, universities and people.
Introductions to co-investors, advisors, universities, incubators and health systems across Maryland, DC and Virginia.
