A very nice evening before the summer break. Warm atmosphere, great speakers and a hot topic for start-ups and VCs to minimize the risk of failure. Beyond focusing on science, market trends, regulations and users adoption, considering the "Human Element" from the outset and assisting teams identifying their talents and optimal interaction methods significantly boots success rates. This is an approach we master at GenSearch. #HealthTechDinners #Learn #Debate #Network #Coaching #systemicapproach

I've been reflecting (beachside;) on the extraordinary #Innovate100 event from a couple months ago, as I believe we have just touched the tip of the iceberg regarding our region's potential for even greater growth. The event hosted 450+ local key leaders and highlighted many of our strengths...here are just a few that come to mind: Academic Leadership: We highlighted the importance of nurturing talent within our academic institutions. Collaboration between universities and industry is crucial in spurring innovation and developing a skilled and agile workforce capable of meeting the demands of our rapidly evolving economy. Research: Advancements in genomics, biotech, and healthtech are positioning New Jersey as a leader in cutting-edge scientific discoveries. These innovations contribute to our understanding of complex biological systems and pave the way for new treatments and technologies that can improve our lives. Technology and Digital Transformation: These are huge cornerstones of our state's legacy and the region’s future success. The integration of #AI, robotics, and other advanced technologies is revolutionizing the way we do business. Embracing these changes and investing in R&D and digital infrastructure will be key to maintaining our competitive edge in the global market. And thankfully, Gov. Murphy and the New Jersey Economic Development Authority (NJEDA) have been making the bold investments to spur even more #innovation and #entrepreneurship in AI, tech, and life sciences. What an inspiring time to be innovating in New Jersey. I'm looking forward to continuing to support our brilliant ecosystem...please save evenings of October 10 and May 13, 2025 as we continue elevating our finest.

We are thrilled to see our CEO and Head of HealthTech, Stefan C. Heilmann, attending HLTH Europe in Amsterdam! Stefan is eager to dive into the latest HealthTech developments and trends, bringing his extensive experience and insights to the forefront. 🚀 As Head of HealthTech at IEG - INVESTMENT BANKING GROUP and Founder & Co-Chairman at DoctorBox, Stefan has identified his BIG 4️⃣ priorities for Amsterdam: 1️⃣ Fostering Mutually Beneficial Partnerships: In a highly political and complex environment, Stefan is focused on finding allies and incumbents to build partnerships, not adversaries. 2️⃣ Building Patient-Centric Digital Health Platforms: He aims to join forces to create European digital health platforms that prioritize patients, rather than developing another vertical health app solution. 3️⃣ Creating Hybrid Digital Health Services: Stefan is dedicated to building hybrid digital health services, moving away from disruptive, revolutionary, and loud market shout-outs and "front-ends." 4️⃣ Mastering Distribution: He emphasises the importance of distribution in adopting healthcare technology. As shared by Thomas Hagemeijer, "The most significant bottleneck in the adoption of healthcare technology to date has been distribution."

Heilmann if you're interested in meeting up. #HLTH #HealthTech #Innovation #FutureOfHealthcare #HybridCare #HealthcareData #PatientCentric

👋 Say hello to Nordic Health Lab’s Impact Award Jury 👋 🚀 THEIR MISSION?  To find the winners in our Nordic Health Lab Impact Awards company categories. 👉 WHO ARE THEY?  The Nordic Health Lab jury consists of members from the life science ecosystem: Martin Vesterby, Stine Kruse from DTU - Technical University of Denmark, Morten Rasmussen from Danish.Care - Branchen for hjælpemidler og velfærdsteknologi, Anne-Marie Hall from Amazing Hall, Martin Broch Pedersen from Health Tech Hub Copenhagen, Kristine Sylvest Brinks, Jens Just from Danish Life Science Cluster and Alexander Bjerregaard-Nielsen from Den Sociale Kapitalfond 🧩 HOW HAVE THEY FOUND THE WINNERS? The Impact Award winner companies are found among the companies that have either pitched for Nordic Health Lab’s test partners or have been in a test run with our test partners during 2024. It took the jury some thinking, and preparation time on their own, then they all met up to discuss their thoughts (on a well-deserved cup of coffee) and choose a winner in each category.  Nordic Health Lab just facilitated the process. 🤔 WHO WON THEN?  We know it’s way too exciting, and we can’t wait to reveal the winners to you. But there is one catch: You have to show up to our Impact Awards. On the other hand, it’s a free event. And who can say no to free coffee - and to meet a bunch of cool people from the eco system? 🤗 WAIT, THERE ARE MORE WINNERS – AND CATEGORIES?  Yes, at the ceremony, we also celebrate our test partners and others from the ecosystem, that make an extra effort in advancing healthcare innovation. 📌 BUT WHAT IS NORDIC HEALTH LAB IMPACT AWARDS? At this event, we will be giving awards to startups, hospitals, municipalities, and other partners to recognize those who go the extra mile to optimize the healthcare system.
