Wanted:
Singapore Startups for Incubation
We're expanding our Super Incubator programme’s cohort and looking to enroll eligible Singapore-based startups. Successful candidates will receive tailored support according to their individual requirements, with most of the associated costs borne by VentureBlick.
What Are We Looking For?
Singapore-based startups in medtech or healthtech, with novel technologies that can create new markets, disrupt existing ones, or fulfil unmet clinical/operational needs.
Startups must have at least completed initial feasibility studies or demonstrated proof-of-concept. They must also be Singapore-registered, with at least 30% equity held directly or indirectly by Singaporean(s) and/or Singapore PR(s).
Why Apply?
Singapore startups enrolled in the Super Incubator will enjoy a full suite of incubation and acceleration services that are tailored according to their needs, but heavily subsidised by the Singapore government to reduce the barriers of entry.
This is not for-profit – our aim here is to support key government initiatives while building connections with the local community, so our goals are aligned with your startup’s success.
How Do I Sign Up?
If you haven’t already, sign up (for free) as an Innovator on VentureBlick Discovery and complete your profile – including details of your specific innovation. From there, you can then apply to join the Super Innovator Search via the Open Innovation function.
Why Do I Need To Sign Up on VB Discovery to Join the Search?
Discovery is a global networking platform dedicated to healthcare innovation. By signing up and showcasing your innovation there, you are already gaining international exposure to a broader international audience.
Future Open Innovation Searches, whether conducted by VentureBlick or other corporate/government bodies, will also be done through Discovery, so your future applications will be easily completed there as well.
