We CO-FOUND COMPANIES WITH

LEADING RESEARCHERS

WHO WE ARE

Early Charm creates, owns and operates businesses that convert science into revenue.

We specialize in taking brilliant scientific discoveries made at universities and turning them into companies focused on growth. We don't chase quick exits. We build companies that create sustainable value.
Our best successes come from teaming with entrepreneurial-minded faculty who are rooted in:

Drug Design, Custom Materials, Blue Economy and Engineered Products
We don't write checks just to show up for board meetings. We are the management team, the operators and the entrepreneurs. We show up to the labs and offices every day to do the heavy lifting. We deploy our team of interdisciplinary experts across all of our portfolio companies, bringing real-world problem-solvers to work directly on growing our companies at every stage of their lifecycles.
Ultimately, we bring to the table our deep experience co-founding companies with leading researchers. With these exceptional people and their ideas, we partner with them to advance or even create whole new industries.
