Catalyzing Cutting-edge Innovations, Designs and Technology in Healthcare
The future of healthcare depends on innovative technological solutions and new business models of care. From universal access to robotics, AI assisted patient care and remote monitoring, how we prevent, treat and manage healthcare will depend on our ability to incorporate AI/VR, NLP, wearables and devices. This Innovation Challenge is meant to engage innovators, entrepreneurs, students, non-profits, and philanthropists to look at health technology from this new perspective.

Digital Transformation Fund
With the CharmHealth + Bioverge Digital Transformation Fund, Bioverge’s expertise in sourcing and investing in the next-generation healthcare startups is paired with CharmHealth’s extensive and growing network, technical support and marketplace of digital tools.
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. This Digital Transformation Fund is pioneering a new way to bridge this gap. In the context of healthcare, this can mean a shortened time for a cure to a life-threatening disease or novel treatment for a chronic condition.
