Thesis

Dioko Ventures, the venture capital arm of Dioko Management LLC, is a seed-stage investment firm specializing in the healthcare technology and services sector. They are particularly interested in companies that contribute to the 'quadruple aim' of healthcare: improving patient care, enhancing population health, reducing costs, and bettering provider work-life. Specific areas of interest include end-of-life and palliative care, oncology technology, and the application of blockchain in healthcare. They also invest in healthcare software and software-enabled services with recurring revenue models that disrupt manual processes. Dioko Ventures explicitly avoids investments in medical devices, life sciences, or drug development. While their geographic focus is Western North Carolina, they are open to investing anywhere in the U.S. Their strategy involves taking a lead or significant follow role in seed-stage rounds, with typical investments ranging from $300,000 to $1.2 million. A key investment criterion is that the target company must have at least $50,000 in recurring annual revenue. One filing indicates a fund, 'VC, FCA Health Innovations I LP,' with $40.1 million in AUM as of March 30, 2017.
