About Ian Eliason
I've always been curious, trying to cultivate a deeper understanding of the world. That same curiosity has also lead me "off the beaten path" to find keys that unlock simple solutions to big problems. That same mentality led me to co-found Zoic Capital, where my work consists of analysis, diligence, and optimization. Zoic Capital operates as a middleman, pulling in investor capital and deploying it into companies that solve big problems dominantly. In turn, this process allows my team and I to help our portfolio companies and investors: ► Develop large scale inclusive IP development strategies ► Help connect and codevelop deals with potential strategic acquirers We are currently the only US-based venture firm focused solely on investing in the seed stage of Medtech, going through a rigorous vetting process with each investment opportunity to ensure that: 1. their technological developments represent at least a 10X improvement in the current standard of care 2. their technology relies on scientific mechanisms which are fully supported by published literature, independent trials, and personal observation 3. in most cases, they have unique hardware and IP coupled with unique software 4. the leadership team has the necessary combination of vision and experience to create a transformational company 5. they have initial regulatory approval on a short timeline, typically two to four years. Throughout this process, my job is to find the core USP, issues, and areas of improvement for each of our portfolio companies and for each of the opportunities that come across our table. Then, ultimately determine how we can implement tactical insights, providing value to the company, and, as a result, our investors.
