GeneChem Therapeutics Venture Fund L.P was launched in 2000, based on the changing landscape of the genomics industry and the initial success of 1997's GeneChem Therapeutics Venture Fund L.P. At that time, the human genome was on the verge of being entirely sequenced and it was becoming apparent that while early estimates accounted for approximately 150,000 genes, recent estimates accounted for only a fraction of that. Indeed, it has become apparent that the complexity of the human genome and more importantly of human disease, lies in how human genes are expressed (when and where) and how they interact together rather than in the intrinsic number of genes in the human genome or in the number involved in any particular disease. With committed capital of $136.5 million, the Therapeutics Fund's objectives are to invest within the genomics industry but specifically in companies developing therapeutics for proliferative disorders including cancer, infectious diseases, inflammation and diabetes. Diseases for which there are unmet medical needs, large market opportunities and where genomics has yet to make its mark. Status of the Fund: Actively investing and seeking opportunities. .
