Clusters & Incubators: Empowering Ecosystems

Strengthening HealthTech Offerings

Incubators and accelerators are vital intermediaries within entrepreneurial ecosystems. According to an OECD study, they provide co‑located spaces, coaching, training, networking and access to financing. HCI works alongside generalist incubators and industry clusters to help them integrate HealthTech into their programmes and to build international collaborations.

What We Do – Collaborative Programmes for Ecosystem Builders

HCI offers tailored services to clusters, incubators and accelerators seeking to expand their HealthTech impact:

Programme Design & Capacity Building

Co create incubation curricula that address ideation, prototyping, testing, consumer comprehension, market access and fundraising. Our experts can deliver workshops on business design thinking, regulatory pathways and market strategy.

HealthTech Pipeline & Matchmaking

Connect your incubated startups with clinicians, universities and industrial partners. By integrating industry needs at the earliest stages, we ensure that your programmes solve validated, real world problems.

International Cooperation

Implement cross border projects and strategic delegations to foster Euro Mediterranean partnerships. Examples include delegations to MedInTechs Paris and Algiers Slush’D, where HCI convened pharmaceutical leaders, regulators and startups to co define national roadmaps.

Expert Access & Knowledge Sharing

Tap into HCI’s network of subject matter experts for mentoring, regulatory guidance, and scientific validation. Workshops, webinars and mentoring sessions can be integrated into your incubation programmes.

Impact Measurement & Reporting

Develop metrics to evaluate programme effectiveness, track graduates and communicate your ecosystem’s impact to stakeholders.
