Health Impact Investor Challenge

January 28

This event has passed.

The Challenge is an 11-week training program for both early-stage impact investors seeking to make investments and purpose-driven entrepreneurs looking to fundraise.

The Health Impact Investor Challenge has two intersecting cohort streams

  • one geared towards investors looking to make early-stage investments into healthcare solutions
  • one designed for health-focused startups looking to fundraise.

Investors will navigate the ins and outs of early-stage investing while startups prepare for the capital-raising process. These weekly live-interactive sessions will be results-driven and delivered virtually. The program will connect startup and investor participants to industry experts, present an opportunity for network expansion, and provide valuable insight into the investing and capital raising process.

At the end of the program, the investor cohort will award a $100,000* investment to one startup.

Spots are limited. Apply before January 28, 2022.
