Brisbane, Australia has a long and successful history leading world-class innovations, including the world’s first cancer vaccine – Gardasil. Now, Life Science Nation (LSN) is partnering with the Brisbane Economic Development Agency (BEDA) to deliver a new accelerator program to help ten promising MedTech companies connect with early-stage investors from around the world. The entrepreneurial education program will include a three-day immersion course, industry mentorship, and content delivered virtually over an eight-week period, concluding with a final in-person pitch event in San Francisco during JP Morgan Healthcare Week.
The syllabus includes:
- Telling your company story in a compelling way
- Developing powerful marketing collateral for partnering
- Myths and realities around fundraising
- Input from industry leaders
- A “Shark Tank” style rehearsal and participation in the Innovator’s Pitch Challenge at RESI JPM
This course will equip them with the skills and tools needed to take their fundraising campaigns and partnering initiatives to the global competitive landscape.
The program builds on LSN’s continued partnership with Life Sciences Queensland to help up-and-coming startups connect with our community of investors. We’re excited to grow our cross-border collaboration with this booming region in Australia.
