HealthTech development notably refers to:

  • Medical devices, i.e. products intended to perform a therapeutic or diagnostic action on human beings by physical means.
  • In vitro diagnostic systems, non-invasive assays analysing biomarkers of pathologies in biological samples
  • Digital health solutions.
How can I choose the Category I am applying for?

Only two categories are open for applications for the HealthTech Award:

  • Best concept/invention : your product is not on the market yet
  • Best product / deal: your solution is rather in its early stages of development or currently ongoing clinical development

Don't worry since the application process is the same for both categories.

Please note that the 3rd category is a special prize given by the HealthTech Advisory Board to one of its ex or current beneficiaries. Therefore, you are not eligible unless you have benefitted from our custom mentoring program, a case in which you do not have to apply for this special prize.
