Horizon Ventures

Horizons Ventures is a privately funded, Hong Kong-based venture capital firm founded in 2002. It specializes in early to late-stage investments in deep science, technology, and transformational companies across multiple sectors, prominently including life sciences, healthcare, biotech, and pharma. While it actively invests in these health-related fields, Horizons Ventures itself is a financial investor and does not conduct R&D, clinical trials, or develop therapies directly. The firm is renowned for backing high-profile companies such as Facebook, Waze, Zoom, DeepMind, Siri, and Skype, and has recently focused on companies in synthetic biology, food technology, and biotech like Cortical Labs, Notpla, and Harrison.ai, consistently targeting innovations with significant societal impact. Solina Chau is a co-founder, and Li Ka-shing serves as its principal financial backer.
