VentureBlick is organising a global search for the most promising startups in the healthcare ecosystem today. Join the competition and stand to win non-dilutive prizes worth up to US$100,000, including a
2-month fundraising campaign for your startup, as well as manufacturing and prototyping credits.
What is the competition looking for?
Startups in medtech, biotech, digital health, or life sciences with novel technologies that have the potential to create new markets, disrupt existing ones, or fulfil unmet clinical/operational needs.
Startups must be legally incorporated, and have at least completed initial feasibility studies or demonstrated proof-of-concept.
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 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.
