With this program, the 3 organizations support the development of innovative medical solutions. This fall 12 starting entrepreneurs of 5 teams will receive 5 coaching days on R&D and technology.

Coaching trajectory for starting medical entrepreneurs

The ultimate goal of the Medical Solutions Accelerator is to bring innovative medical technology to the market in a sustainable way. A successful product focuses on the needs and requirements of the end user, in this case the patient. Developing such an innovative product requires an iterative learning process and adequate adjustments. It is precisely this gap that the short-term medical acceleration program of UAntwerpen, UZA and Verhaert Masters in Innovation fills in.

Medical Solutions Accelerator wants to nourish starting medical entrepreneurs. We offer them support of innovation experts and medical R&D insights of Verhaert, technological IP and testing facilities of UAntwerp and access to high quality medical experts of the University Hospital of Antwerp.
