Our Approach

Broadline's proprietary investment process is designed to stretch alpha at every link of the investment value chain. The investment team seeks diversification by investing across a range of industries, geographies, transaction structures, and market capitalizations. When selecting opportunities, they take a two-pronged approach:
​
-
First, the investment team starts with a "Top-Down" approach to identify thematic categories where the combination of growth, strong margins, and broad impact are creating an abundance of opportunities.
​
-
Next, they take a "Bottom-Up" approach to screen for companies that are tracking to become category leaders or category creators, with preference for companies that are expecting a near-term liquidity event, valuation milestone, or business model validation event such as IPO or M&A event.

Healthcare

ENDOSCOPIC Medical Devices
EndoSphere is a medical technology company that has developed a first-in-class, less-invasive medical device platform to treat metabolic diseases, including some of the world's largest healthcare issues such as Obesity, Type 2 Diabetes, and Fatty Liver Disease. EndoSphere's novel "Endo-Metabolic" device platform represents a completely new category of devices that is the first to uniquely focus on the Duodenum, the upper intestinal organ that is widely recognized as the body's metabolic control center. Endosphere's flagship anti-obesity device is incisionless, reversible and repeatable. In clinical studies, the device enabled Obese patients to achieve significant Excess Weight Loss (EWL) without the need for more invasive alternatives. Unlike restrictive devices and bariatric surgeries, which typically work against nature, EndoSphere's "Endo-Metabolic" devices work with the body by amplifying its physiological responses to food intake in order to help accelerate satiation, recalibrate brain-gut metabolic feedback loops, recalibrate hormones, and rebalance insulin levels. EndoSphere's patent asset portfolio is 100% company-owned and free from any third-party licensing or royalty obligations. EndoSphere has received numerous industry recognitions, including the industry's "Fierce15" award, named by FierceBiotech, which annually recognizes the world's most promising privately-held medical innovations.​​ The original version of its anti-obesity device received CE Mark (regulatory approval in 31 countries), and an enhanced version has entered clinical stages of development.

Energy & Environment

Carbon-Free Lithium-ion and Solid State BatterY CATHODES
Powermers Inc. is an Energy Storage innovator that has created fundamental advancements in lithium-ion and solid state battery cathode technologies. The company has created the world's first (and only) Carbon-Free Lithium-ion and Solid State Battery Cathodes. Powermers' advanced platform enables efficient adoption by battery manufacturers through its drop-in technology that replaces inactive deadweight materials (including Carbon, Binders, and Solvents) with safer, higher-performing conductive nano-scale polymers. Powermers' differentiated results have been published in industry peer-review publications including American Chemical Society's Applied Materials & Interfaces. These fundamental advancements in cathode technology were independently validated by U.S. government labs (CERL) and universities around the world, including the Center for Automotive Research at The Ohio State University. Independently-validated lab results of both coin cell batteries and scaled pouches demonstrate Powermers' low-cost transition-metal polymers to provide higher catalytic functionality than pure noble-metal catalysts including gold, platinum, and palladium. Powermers' advanced polymer technology platform measurably increases Safety, reduces Toxicity, and increases Performance. The 5-point Powermers Advantage:
1. Safer: Mitigates Thermal Runaway Risk (the prevailing cause of combustion in high-voltage Lithium-ion batteries).
2. Less Toxic: Reduces reliance on costly Toxic Solvents in the battery manufacturing process.
3. Higher Performing: Expands Active Material Limits without sacrificing Power, Cycle Life, Weight, or Cost per KWH.
4. Drop-in Adoption: Enables rapid adoption into existing battery manufacturing processes.
5. Cost Savings per KWH: Reduces Total Cost per KWH by eliminating reliance on costly solvents while enabling greater energy.
