Our next HIHR-edition will take place in May with online Quickfire sessions scheduled May 6-8 and our live pitch event in Antwerp on May 15. We happily welcome you to connect with the newest academic Health Spin-offs from the Benelux.

(Future) academic spin off projects or established ventures in the human health are warmly invited to join our next edition.

• 9 selected Start ups seeking (pre-)Seed funding will present their proposition during the life pitch event on the afternoon of May 15.
• 2 HIHR alumni projects, seeking additional funding in ‘pre-series A’-stage to present their case; they will also share their ‘lessons learned in their Start-up Journey’

During the afternoon programme in addition to the pitches, we we offer again a sneak view on ‘The future of...‘. Prof Annelies Bronckaers of the University of Hasselt will update us on Tooth organoids in dental health innovation.
