About Leonhardt Venture LLC

Leonhardt Ventures LLC was founded in 1982 (formerly HJ Leonhardt & Co.) now celebrating its 40th anniversary in Medtech innovations.  In the 1980’s the team pioneered development of the PolyCath line of cardiovascular balloon catheters.  In the 1990’s the TALENT stent graft and StentValve. Since 2000, the team has focused on applying the convergence of bioelectrics and biologics to organ regeneration, healing, longevity and wellness. In 2001, Leonhardt led the team that completed the first non-surgical muscle cell repair of a human heart. Over 600,000 patients have used Leonhardt inventions to date. Leonhardt Ventures LLC opened Leonhardt’s Launchpads, a Life Sciences R&D Lab Incubator network, in 2008 to help support development of innovations.  The primary charter mission of this R&D incubator was to explore if the research the Leonhardt team had done to regenerate hearts would apply to other organs and purposes. In 2013, it formed Cal-X Stars Business Accelerator, Inc., a mentorship based innovation and startup launch accelerator, that focuses on helping inventions to mature to a level strong enough to attract investment, patent licenses or a strategic commercialization partnership. In 2022, it formed Lionheart Health, Inc. to initially focus on commercializing select products in the area of aesthetics, longevity, wellness and sports/fitness medicine, the primarily products sought by the high growth market of Longevity & Wellness MedSpas. There are over 22,000 Wellness MedSpas today in the USA with that number expected to grow to over 30,000 by the end of this decade. Lionheart Health is committed to be their go to technology partner.
