Altitude Ventures

Altitude Ventures aims to maximize value creation through value-added partnerships. AV provides early-stage venture capital financing to healthcare services and technology startups that improve healthcare. Our firm, through its offices in Nashville, Tennessee, and Houston, Texas, leverages its combined industry expertise, relationships, investment experience, and infrastructure to benefit entrepreneurs, investors, and the overall healthcare system. Originally founded as a product of Nashville-based investment firm Clayton Associates, AV has a track record of more than two decades of healthcare venture capital and angel investing experience. Especially important to AV’s success is the early vision, guidance, and wisdom of the late Clayton McWhorter, who was essential to the creation of our firm.
