We are thrilled to have been selected as one of 24 scale-ups for the 2021 EIT Health Bridgehead program!
The program
IT Health’s Bridgehead program brings together European health entrepreneurs with export aspirations with the world’s best incubators and accelerators that have the expertise and resources to help entrepreneurs enter new markets.
Scaling up and tapping into a new market is a big step for any business: Being successful requires expert knowledge about your target destination and a broad network. The EIT Bridgehead program gives us the opportunity to be part of the largest incubator network in Germany. Our chosen EIT Catalyser, the leading Medical Valley European Metropolitan Region Nuremberg, will help us enter the German market next year.
