Initiative details
The program will support medical device startups, including diagnostics, therapeutics, AI, and digital health in their first steps to the US market. Selected startups will participate in a two-stage acceleration process:
Stage 1 – expert mentoring on clinical data validation, product-market fit analysis, FDA regulatory pathways, intellectual property strategy, U.S. healthcare reimbursement, and venture capital preparation.
Stage 2 – top performers travel to California for hands-on business development: curated investor meetings with medical-focused VCs, partnership negotiations with hospital systems and medical device companies, FDA pre-submission processes, and pitch events before industry professionals.
The program delivers measurable outcomes through FDA pre-submissions, provisional patent filings, business partnerships, and acceptance into international acceleration programs.
