SUMMARY:Investment for Health Innovation: Data\, Devices and Diagnostics
DESCRIPTION:Are you raising investment in the health & wellbeing sector?\nThe COVID-19 pandemic has sharpened the focus on health and wellbeing. It triggered several years of digital transformation seemingly overnight\, prompting the creation of a new wave of health and wellbeing technologies and accelerating those that were already in development. \nThis is certainly a trend we’re seeing on the ground through our member cohorts. At our most recent investment showcase\, over half the companies pitching for investment were early-stage health technologies. It’s a trend that is also recognised in a recent report from the Silicon Valley Bank\, which reported that record levels of capital were allocated and deployed to support innovative companies in the healthcare industry in 2020. \nThere are no signs that this trend is losing momentum\, as the race to develop longer-term health tech solutions continues. \nThat’s why we’re brought together an A list panel of specialist investors in this field as well as academics\, to explore investment trends driving the market and look in detail at what investors are looking for health tech investment prospects. We’ll be covering: \n\nis there a ‘formula’ to successfully securing investment for health innovation?\nWhat are the latest investment trends that are driving the market?\nWhat growth metrics are investors looking for in a pitch deck?\nHow does the UK regulatory framework influence investment decision making?\nWhat is the best way to communicate your approach to key market challenges?\nWe’re currently putting together an A list panel of specialist investors in this sector – to be announced shortly – and you’ll get the opportunity to ask them questions directly.\n\nThis event is hosted by SETsquared’s Investment Manager Rosie Bennett and brought to you by SETsquared’s Scale-Up Programme\, which supports growing\, innovative companies to raise public and private funding.
