Workshop Entrepreneurship in healthcare, the valley of death – Revisited.

How the Basel ecosystem can help to inspire and support entrepreneurship in healthcare

We are excited to announce the next workshop of the Personalized Health Series, which will take place on the 21st of November 2024, during the Global Entrepreneurship Week Basel.

The goal of this workshop is to provide an inspiring and hands-on insight into the Basel ecosystem for everybody striving to transform their own ideas in concrete projects and thus to create innovation. The Basel ecosystem includes numerous high level research institutions as well as more than 700 lifescience companies, big medium and small. The workshop wants to show how fertile such an environment can be to start collaborative projects involving academics, startups and industrial representatives and meet potential partners for your next project.

To showcase the full potential of the Basel ecosystem, we decided this time to partner not only with the Innovation Office of the University of Basel, but also with DayOne Basel, the Switzerland’s leading digital health and medtech accelerators.

Personalized Health Basel, the Innovation Office and DayOne are joining forces and their complementary skills to provide you with a unique experience and bring you concrete examples and hints for everybody interested in starting their entrepreneurial adventure, or for whomever needs health-related data to consolidate a running project and a partnership.

The first session will be a number of stories of success (and failure) of entrepreneurial collaboration within the Basel ecosystem.

The second session is a chance for you to engage directly with a number of startups – can you help? and learn how the University Hospital Basel can help your project.

For any further information or enquiry, please contact Raffaello Ferone.
