Asset Management Ventures (AMV) is a leading early-stage venture capital firm specializing in digital health, technology, and life sciences investments. Founded in 1965 by Franklin 'Pitch' Johnson, one of Silicon Valley's pioneering venture capitalists, AMV has a rich history of supporting groundbreaking companies. Early investments include Boole and Babbage, the first venture capital-funded software company; Tandem Computers, the world’s first fault-tolerant computers; and Coherent Laser, one of the first lasers for healthcare applications.

In the late 1970s, Pitch Johnson co-founded Applied Molecular Genetics, which later became Amgen, a leader in biotechnology. Today, AMV continues to leverage its extensive operating experience and unparalleled network to assist entrepreneurs in building transformative companies that address significant challenges in digital health and technology. The firm's investment team comprises former entrepreneurs with expertise in scientific, engineering, and medical fields, coupled with years of investing experience.

AMV takes an active role in helping founders tackle early-stage challenges, including hiring, strategic focus, technical development, sales channels, and business partnerships. The firm partners with other top-tier venture firms when its portfolio companies raise later-stage capital.
