It can be challenging for healthcare startups to get an audience with investors. That’s why MedCity’s startup pitch contest, Pitch Perfect, is designed to provide opportunities for health IT, diagnostics, medical device and bipharma startups to present their technology or services to an audience of investors with a demonstrated interest in these sectors.
The INVEST Pitch Perfect contest is part of our INVEST conference April 19-23, which will be hosted online due to Covid-19. It includes five tracks for startups: biopharma, medical devices, diagnostics, health IT and health services. If these categories reflect your business, please apply.
To get a sense of the style of the contest, we’ve included the above video from the diagnostics track of the INVEST contest last year.
To be eligible to participate, you need to fulfill one of the following criteria:
- Raised at least $1 million;
- Raised a Series A round;
- Have at least one qualified institutional investor or strategic investor that you can identify
