From Concept to Commercialization: A Pre-Summit Startup Workshop (GHIS III)
Get ready to turn your startup ideas into real business wins with this dynamic, hands-on pre-summit workshop!
Building a health company is hard. The difference between the ones that scale and the ones that stall usually comes down to a handful of early decisions — and whether you make them well.
This half-day workshop kicks off the Global Health Innovators Summit (GHIS III). Whether you're a founder in the thick of it or sitting on an idea you can't shake, you'll spend the afternoon with five sector experts who've actually done the work across the areas that make or break a health startup.
This is not theory; this content is intended to assist founders in making the decisions that determine whether a health company survives or scales.
Who this is for
Health startup founders, aspiring founders, and anyone exploring a new idea in healthcare.
What you'll dig into
- Go-to-Market & Product Strategy
- Regulatory & Compliance
- Clinical
- Legal
- Commercialization
You'll walk away with
A booklet capturing key insights from every session, speaker bios, and the organizations behind the work — so you leave with more than notes.
Then stick around. We'll close the day with a happy hour (4–6 PM) to keep the conversations going.
