In this one-week workshop-filled program, startups learned how to scale and raise capital and got connected with some of the top healthtech influencers and investors in NYC.

A One-Week Hyper Accelerator Program:

Our one-week hyper-accelerator was an opportunity for the most promising healthcare companies selected to become immersed in the health community of New York, meeting with leading startups, corporations, and venture investors. VentureOut’s mission is to empower entrepreneurs with the education, resources, and connections needed to successfully raise capital and grow their business leveraging on all the opportunities NYC has to offer, and our one-week programs are designed to do just that.

Workshops & mentoring

Education and Mentoring are the backbone of any VentureOut program. By partnering with thought leaders in key areas, we give our startups an unfair advantage by arming them with best practices used to scale the most successful companies in Silicon Valley.

 

investor office visits & Company insights

We gave our startups an opportunity to sit down in a fireside chat setting with some of the top investors and entrepreneurs in the Helthtech space in NYC.

 

Private investor reception

Scaling a startup is hard. Scaling one in a turbulent and broken healthcare sector…good luck! We were delighted to hear from healthcare veteran and entrepreneur superstar Jo Schneier about how he’s attacked the healthcare industry, scaled Trusty.care, and succeeded in the face of impossible odds. This was an invite-only breakfast reception with an audience consisting primarily of active venture and angel investors focused on HealthTech space.

 

The Pitch Night

The pitch night is the capstone of the Healthtech Program. We started with networking, cocktails, and hors-d’oeuvres. Following a round of introductions, each startup pitched for 3 minutes and received feedback from each investor on the panel. The night was capped off with more networking and refreshments.

Our investor panel featured:

  • Charles Lacalle from DreamIt Ventures
  • Gaurav Mehta from Berkeley Angel Network
  • Alex Fair from MedStartr
  • Peter Frishauf from Medscape
