Founded in 1996, Polaris has backed and played a lead role in developing some of the most successful information technology and life sciences companies in the United States and Europe.
Diversification - across and within industries, and by
stage - is the cornerstone of Polaris' investment strategy.
We have built an exceptional team of venture capitalists and technology executives with a broad range of investment and operating experience, the highest business standards, and a commitment to success.
Helping build first-rate management teams is a key commitment we make to the companies we back. Our on-staff team has recruited to our portfolio companies more than 50 executives for a wide range of positions without the use of an outside recruiter, from CEO to the director level.
Polaris has backed many companies that have become stars in their fields.
