[company_age]8.0[/company_age][employees]11-50 employees[/employees][funding]series_a[/funding][description]Xontogeny is a life sciences accelerator that collaborates with entrepreneurs, scientific founders, and first-time CEOs to drive the successful development of their technologies, enabling new treatment options for patients with serious diseases. They offer their experienced team and deep network of industry consultants and service providers along with seed investment capital across a variety of technologies, including therapeutics, diagnostics, and devices. Their singular goal is to shepherd each program through a compelling clinical proof-of-concept study. 

What sets Xontogeny apart is their focus on operational support and mentorship. They believe that success takes more than great science and that the skills of drug and medical technology development are separate and distinct. They also believe that the more critical factors that determine success in the clinic are a sound and thoughtful strategy, driven by an experienced team with focused execution. Xontogeny guides entrepreneurs through this process because they understand the challenges of bringing a product to market. 

Another unique aspect of Xontogeny is their network access. They believe that the best and largest talent pools for drug and technology development in the life science industry are concentrated in a limited number of selected geographic hubs. However, they also believe that great ideas and compelling research can come from anywhere. To this end, they give equal consideration to supporting ventures regardless of the source of the technology or where the scientific founder/entrepreneur resides. 

Finally, Xontogeny believes in the spirit of collaboration and working with smart people to foster creative solutions in achieving key milestones for the purpose of accelerating the advancement of new technologies. They encourage entrepreneurs, scientific founders, industry professionals, service providers, BioPharma and MedTech companies, investment professionals, academic research institutions, innovation centers, and incubators to join their network and help shape the future of the industry.[/description][ps]Seed investment capital, experienced team, deep network of industry consultants and service providers, operational support, mentorship, network access[/ps]
