Doug Sylvester of Xcellerant Ventures to Address Family Office Group in Los Angeles Today

Doug Sylvester of Xcellerant Ventures, a healthcare VC, will address the IVY Family Office Network today on a healthcare panel discussing pressing issues for the healthcare investment community. In his tenure as Dean of the College of Law at Arizona State University, Doug was responsible for an incredible rise in national rankings, increase in new programming, and massive increase in revenue. As a result, ASU is now a top-25 law school and is only the 3rd fully self-supporting public law school in the country.

Doug has represented dozens of startup companies in various sectors, launched the nation’s first Innovation Law Program (to support new ventures), taught at business schools around the country, and has been engaged as counsel, advisor, or founder of numerous startups. He brings his years of legal, educational, and entrepreneurial experience to the general partnership of Xcellerant Ventures (XVC) and works hard to ensure XVC's portfolio companies succeed.

Founded in late 2021, Xcellerant Ventures (XVC) is already one of Arizona’s largest and most active venture capital firms. XVC is focused on providing early stage funding to healthtech and medtech companies. To increase the likelihood of early and successful exits, XVC has been selecting companies that are generating revenue and have FDA approvals. XVC’s thesis includes any company with diagnostic, therapeutic, AI, or other technologies that improve quality, increase access, and lower costs within healthcare. In addition, the general partners John Shufeldt, Douglas Sylvester, and Chris Yoo bring a combined experience of over seven decades in medical technologies, law, and entrepreneurship. They are founder-focused, and provide hands-on advice, education, and support to increase the likelihood of success for the portfolio companies. https://www.xcellerantventures.com/
