From Clinical Problem to Health-Tech Venture
About this event
Join TechBrews and Seedhouse Community Network for an honest conversation with Health-Tech founders building innovations within the NHS ecos
Honest Founder Journeys Behind Building Health-Tech Companies
Many successful Health-Tech founders working with the NHS rarely talk about the hardest part of entrepreneurship.
The biggest challenge isn't coming up with a brilliant idea.
It's answering questions like:
👉 How do you prove that a clinical problem is truly worth solving? 👉 How do you persuade clinicians, patients and healthcare providers to adopt your solution?
👉 How do you navigate and enter the NHS?
👉 How do you secure your first funding?
👉 How do you build a team and find the right co-founders?
👉 And when things don't go to plan, how do you keep going?
If you've ever thought about any of these questions, this event is for you.
