Launching a health innovation company is challenging, involving a myriad of steps to ensure the product demonstrates patient-care value, has an entry point into the medical system and can meet regulatory reimbursement requirements.

  • How do your partners benefit from access to your world-class medical advisors, guidance on how health systems validate and integrate technologies, assistance in clinical trial design and IRB approval, help recruiting people for studies and raising funds for the next stage of development and other “services” you provide? How do you select and benefit from your innovation partners?
  • What are examples of successful partnerships? What is the rate of success?
  • What are the challenges, opportunities, and trends you see for the coming years for this model? What aspects of better performing systems should be emulated in a post-COVID world?
