FIKA w. EIT Health

This Thursday, Harsha Madapura from EIT Health will stop by and talk about their different offerings.

EIT Health exists to build an ecosystem where fresh thinking in healthcare can thrive. Our network connects world-class organisations across Europe from the three worlds of business, research and education. Through the EIT Health Accelerator programmes, we nurture the most promising start-ups in healthcare. Our network provides the right ingredients to coach entrepreneurs and foster new businesses.

In 2020, EIT Health Bootcamps offer intensive incubation programmes over a period of two-three months. The Bootcamps target European teams of MSc, MDs and PhD students and/or Postdocs, patients, informal caregivers and collaborators as well as professionals who have a business idea for a product still in the research and development stage. The teams will receive support to design and validate their business model and discover its market potential, competition, USPs and target customers.

As part of the Bootcamps programme, the EIT Health Bootcamp Tour invites participants to meet at one location in Europe and benefit from different offers relevant to further develop the business such as intensive pitch training, peer to peer exchange, marketing workshops, and more. This will take place on 5-6 November (location TBD). Participants will also be invited to visit further relevant locations within Europe and benefit from a tailored programme offer on November 24-25. Outstanding teams of each Bootcamp programme will be selected to attend the EIT Health Summit in the beginning of December.
