Say Hello To Our Inaugural Trailblazer HealthTech Accelerator Cohort Participants
Earlier this year, JumpStart Inc. unveiled an expanded suite of entrepreneurial support services for health tech and software startups. As part of these reimagined services, JumpStart launched the Trailblazer Tech Accelerator Program to empower pre-seed and seed-stage tech startups based in Ohio. The 3-month intensive program guides ambitious startup founders through fundamental growth phases, enhancing their readiness for venture capital investment through a proven curriculum, expert access and individualized advising.
The program rolled out with the HealthTech Accelerator, designed to help healthcare startups level up. It provides a deep dive into regulatory, clinical, reimbursement and commercialization strategies. From quantifying clinical and economic potential to building a roadmap for commercialization to navigating the regulatory pathway, the Trailblazer HealthTech Accelerator will help startups prepare for venture capital raising.
The launch of the Trailblazer Accelerator program received a tremendous response from Ohio-based startups, partner organizations and the broader tech ecosystem. Following a rigorous screening and review process, ten innovative startups have been selected for the inaugural cohort. Together they address important challenges like hospital staffing shortages, sepsis in inpatient settings, symptom relief in underserved populations, ultrasound access in rural areas and much, much more.
