Swan Ventures

Specializing In Fund-Of-Funds Investments

A Boutique Venture Firm

Swan Ventures, founded in 2000 by Jonathan Parmer, M.D., specializes in fund-of-funds investments. The first Swan fund was designed to give Silicon Valley physicians an opportunity to invest in a diverse portfolio of top-tier venture capital funds with an emphasis on healthcare. The second fund, formed in 2003, expanded its limited partner base and had a greater percentage of investments outside of healthcare.

Why Raise a Third Fund Now?

We believe the timing is right for a venture fund-of-funds. And, equally important, we believe we have the right team to do it.
