Public description

About the program

Flare Capital Partners is a healthtech venture capital firm founded in 2013 that invests in founders rebuilding healthcare's operating system with software, data and AI. Alongside the fund it runs Flare Scholars, a fellowship giving roughly 509 rising professionals from leading graduate programs and healthcare institutions hands-on venture experience and mentorship, and it funds ventures launched by scholars. Flare Capital is a venture fund rather than an accelerator; Flare Scholars is its talent and venture-creation program.
