"The AceON program helps start-ups approach validation in a structured manner and gain valuable insights for future product development, provided that a defined problem is found and is important to the customers." says Andrej Petrus, Head of Investment Committee at ZAKA VC. Validation is crucial for start-ups, ensuring that a business idea, product, or service has real market demand before significant time and money are invested. Therefore, in our upcoming Autumn Accelerator 2024, we will place an increased focus on validation 🔎, with regular online meetings for selected startups. We are keen to hear how the teams approach product validation, whether their efforts are sufficient, and what progress they have made. Our goal is to help them accelerate the development of a market-demanded product and see the results until Demo Day at the end of the program. 🚀 🙌 Applications to Autumn Accelerator 2024 are still open (link in the comment). #aceon #aceonaccelerator #validation #startupaccelerator

Our key project - Mudisocard covers full dynamics of the heart including: the heart contraction excitation (ECG), parameters on how the contraction develops (auscultation) and what is contraction effect, i.e. how the chest fluids move (bioimpedance). In between the heartbeats, the device detects air movements in the human chest. The airflow generates changes in bioimpedance and creates sounds detected by auscultation.
