Investment Thesis

Melnichek Investments is driven by a mission to improve the quality of human lives through funding and supporting machine learning and biotech startups. The firm operates with capital sourced from the founder’s previous successful exit (Vochi, acquired by Pinterest), allowing for independent decision-making and a long-term vision focused on world-improving ideas rather than purely financial returns.

What Sets Them Apart

Owner-funded structure using proceeds from successful exit (Vochi acquired by Pinterest), enabling independent investment decisions
Portfolio spans both AI/ML applications and hard biotech/biopharmaceutical companies
Willingness to support companies across funding stages, from preclinical (NaNotics) to more advanced stages (Gero with $19M raised)
Focus on longevity and disease prevention through physics-enabled biotechnology
