Studio Red
Studio Red catalyzes the creation of companies to bring groundbreaking advances in heart and brain health to market. We’re the venture studio of American Heart Association Ventures, singularly focused on bridging the gap between discovery and delivery.
We leverage the people, science, clinical know-how and extensive assets of the American Heart Association and our external scientific, clinical and entrepreneurial communities to ensure the most promising cardiovascular and neurological ideas find their optimal path to commercialization.
Our goal is to ensure patients and caregivers have access to world-class products and services delivered by medically sound, scalable, sustainable companies.
Studio Red speeds the journey from innovation to actualization.
Identify
Our experienced team of entrepreneurs canvasses the market for unmet needs that impact heart and brain health and related conditions. We identify where American Heart Association resources can deliver unique, differentiated value.
When we uncover the intersection of a compelling idea, significant market demand and strong investment potential, we launch initiatives to create and co-create solutions that drive meaningful change.
Create
Our company creation process is intentionally flexible. We build companies from the ground up, co-create with partner organizations and venture studios, and collaborate with founders, researchers and entrepreneurs-in-residence. We also work closely with academic institutions and their tech transfer offices to unlock advances in heart and brain health.
For every project, we assemble the right team, partnerships and structures to maximize the opportunity for commercial success.
Incubate
The Studio Red team of seasoned entrepreneurs and investors works side-by-side to bring each new idea to life. To do so, we partner closely with our network of advisors, mentors, translational researchers, entrepreneurs-in-residence and co-investors to support the early stages of development.
Our team provides hands-on resources and strategic guidance while assembling the leadership team that will steer the enterprise as it spins out into the marketplace.
