Life Science Nation is pleased to announce the finalists for the Innovator’s Pitch Challenge (IPC) at RESI JPM 2026. Taking place over two full days in San Francisco, RESI JPM will once again bring together early-stage life science and healthcare innovators with a global community of investors seeking opportunities across drugs, devices, diagnostics, and digital health (4Ds).
This year’s IPC will run as a continuous track, with finalists presenting in dedicated sessions held every hour across both days of RESI JPM 2026. These startups will showcase technologies poised to address key challenges across the 4Ds and advance the next generation of healthcare innovation.
The IPC gives founders a rare opportunity to pitch directly to active investors, including VCs, family offices, corporate venture groups, and angel networks. Presenting companies receive actionable feedback, participate in meaningful conversations with investors, and gain visibility among the hundreds of attendees in the RESI partnering community.
Finalists will also present their technologies in the RESI Exhibition Hall, creating additional touchpoints for networking and ongoing discussion throughout the conference.
About the RESI Innovator’s Pitch Challenge
The IPC remains a defining element of all RESI conferences. Each pitch session brings together a coordinated panel of investors who deliver interactive, constructive feedback designed to help founders refine their fundraising narrative. IPC participants receive conference registration with full access to partnering, exhibit space in the RESI Exhibition Hall, and the opportunity to compete for a complimentary registration to a future RESI event.
