About the Program
As healthcare continues to evolve rapidly, there is a growing need to address emerging challenges, improve patient outcomes, streamline operations, and enhance the overall healthcare ecosystem. This can be achieved by fostering increased innovation and supporting the development of scalable solutions that drive meaningful change.
This program provides a unique opportunity for founders to receive support and mentorship from both Techstars and Mid-Atlantic Permanente Medical Group (MAPMG), an award-winning group of 1,800 physicians spanning more than 60 medical specialties and nearly 300 staff professionals, and the exclusive care provider of Kaiser Permanente in the Washington D.C., Virginia, and Maryland region.
In addition to our 3-month mentorship-driven accelerator program, we make a $220,000 investment into each company in the program (see terms), provide access to our world-class network of investors, mentors, and alumni, and provide valuable perks from partners.
