18n Ventures backs exceptional early-stage Israeli BioAI companies developing life-changing solutions at the intersection of artificial intelligence, technology, biology, and healthcare.
The name 18n reflects our belief that the future of healthcare lies at the intersection of biology and advanced technology.
18 represents Chai — life, health, and biology — while n represents technology, including AI and advanced computation.
Together, 18n represents the convergence of biology and technology — what we call BioAI — and the potential for exponential impact in healthcare.
Artificial intelligence, computational methods and engineering advances are converging with biological and clinical data to form BioAI.
The BioAI healthcare transformation is accelerating drug discovery, enabling earlier disease detection, improving clinical decision-making, and reshaping healthcare delivery.
Globally, BioAI companies are already generating significant impact and value. We believe this is only the beginning.
