About

Thinking about launching a HealthTech venture?

Or perhaps you’re considering joining the MedTech Accelerator, but feel you’re not quite ready yet?

Start here!

Our Pre-Accelerator combines StartLab.brussels’ hands-on entrepreneurial programme with dedicated expertise from the MedTech Accelerator team.

Over the course of the programme, you’ll work on the fundamentals of your entrepreneurial project:

  • Customer & Market Discovery – deeply understand your customers, their needs and your market.
  • Prototyping & Testing – turn your idea into a tangible solution and test it with real users.
  • Business Model & Financials – build the foundations of a viable and sustainable business.
  • Pitching & Communication – learn to present your project with clarity and confidence.
  • Entrepreneurial Mindset – build resilience, learn from feedback and keep moving forward.

 

And because HealthTech comes with its own challenges…

Throughout the programme, the MedTech Accelerator team will bring dedicated expertise, helping you better understand the healthcare ecosystem, its stakeholders and the specific challenges of bringing a HealthTech solution to market.

The objective? Validate your idea, strengthen your project and get ready for the next step — including the MedTech Accelerator when the time is right.
