About the Fund

Explain the Fund's mission to drive NF treatments from discovery to market through strategic
investments, clinical trials, and drug screening.

Strategic Commercial

Question We Are Answering:

How can we accelerate the development of NF relevant treatments through targeted investments?

Purpose

  • What we do: We identify the most promising treatments and make strategic, targeted investments. We provide companies (primarily biotechs) with the resources, credibility and support they need to move faster and unlock additional funding.
  • How we do it: Our strategic investments lower the barrier to entry for companies, spurring greater interest and involvement in NF.
  • What it means: When these treatments succeed, we reinvest the returns, creating a cycle of innovation
    and progress.

Why it Matters

Instead of waiting for the system to change, we work to eliminate barriers to discovery.

By proactively identifying the most promising treatments, we provide our partners with a ready-to-go solution to join us in driving progress.

NF Therapeutics Accelerator Fund

Two Strategies to Maximize Returns and Drive NF Breakthroughs

Two hands surrounding a heart with a heartbeat line, symbolizing care and health.

Direct Investment

We invest directly into a commercial entity - injecting capital into companies that are actively developing a treatment relevant to NF (usually early-stage biotechs).

By doing this, we help them advance their research and also position ourselves to share in the financial returns if the treatment succeeds.

Indirect Investment

By doing this, we help them advance their research and also position ourselves to share in the financial returns if the treatment succeeds.

By enabling the quick and easy testing of these compounds, we make assets more attractive for further investment and share in the financial returns if successful, reinvesting them into NF research and development.

Two hands surrounding a heart with a heartbeat line, symbolizing care and health.

By working across biotech startups and large pharma, we reduce risks,
remove barriers, and generate financial returns that fund further NF research.

This dual approach positions CTF to harness the agility of early-stage
innovation and the scale of pharma, driving progress from every angle.
