Pitch Competition

Early-stage innovators and startups will compete for grants. The Challenge comes at a time when a wide gap exists in the digital healthcare investment space, whereby the validation of innovative ideas is often too far removed from the input of actual end users. The changing healthcare sector has created new opportunities for technological solutions, novel business models, and unexpected collaborations. Together, CharmHealth and Bioverge, a leading Silicon Valley venture firm and investment platform, launched the Digital Transformation Fund to bridge this gap.

"We are delighted to bring together this esteemed group of passionate healthcare technology stakeholders, from industry experts to investors to students, to exchange ideas," said Pramila Srinivasan, Ph.D., CEO of CharmHealth. "Our hope is to create an interactive forum of innovations and information that can be shared, fueling better health outcomes for all."
