About Us
Founded in 2019 by Larry Smith, Intrepid Phoenix Ventures, Inc. is an Indiana corporation headquartered in La Porte, Indiana.
Our History
In partnership with the University of Notre Dame and Bowen Center, Indiana’s premier mental health and substance use treatment provider, we have developed a cutting-edge software platform dedicated to substance use disorder recovery.
As a Notre Dame Idea Center Venture, we have undergone rigorous de-risking and commercialization processes. Bowen Center, serving as our design partner and initial client, has been instrumental in our journey.
We have assembled a strong and diverse team, with each member bringing distinct backgrounds, expertise, knowledge and perspectives to address the problem. The most important aspects of our team are our shared purpose — to be a force for good — and our passion for helping people suffering from substance use disorder.
Our Mission
At Intrepid Phoenix Ventures, we believe in the transformative power of technology to drive robust engagement and support of people in their recovery journey. By empowering both patients and their dedicated healthcare providers, we are committed to significantly increasing recovery success rates. Our aim is to lead users of our technology toward a life of sobriety, health and lasting happiness.
