Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Healthcare+ accepts applicants from companies in the healthcare industry (medtech, biotech, medical device and healthcare services). Healthcare+ is for companies that have completed at least a seed round fundraising.

During the three-month program, Healthcare+ offers healthcare startups four key resources: access to capital, mentorship, global business partnerships, and working space in Silicon Valley and Boston.

Applicants are selected based on team dynamic, experience, and technology & product characteristics through three screening rounds. Factors also include the business model, market strategy, potential market size, and total financial considerations.

We invest capital to those well-performed startups after the demo day of each cohort. We invest up to $xx,xxx.00 into a company. (to be discussed)

Companies are either charged $3,500 or can choose to allocate 1% equity to Healthcare+.
