Winter 2026

How it works

Two categories — Startups and Scaleups — run in parallel, each selecting five finalists.

1
Signal Willingness
After registering, make sure your profile is up to date, then submit a 3-minute video introducing your startup and explaining why you should be selected.
2
Mentor Preselection
Our mentor committee evaluates every application on merit and creates a shortlist.
3
Investor & Corporate Vote
The shortlist goes to registered investors and corporates, who vote for the final 5+5 teams they want to see pitch.
4
Live Online Pitch
Finalists pitch live in an open online event for our investor and corporate community.

Transparent, fair, and designed to keep the best innovators coming back.

1
Two categories: Startups and Scaleups compete separately. Five finalists selected in each category per event.
2
Registration required: Only innovators registered on the platform can enter. Your profile must be up to date at time of application.
3
3-minute video pitch: Besides your platform profile, the only extra requirement is a short video.
4
Apply multiple times, pitch once per year: You can reapply each cycle, but if you pitched in the same calendar year, you wait. New applications are favoured.
5
Online and open: Anyone can watch the live pitches. Q&A rights reserved for investors, corporates and sponsors.

Same goal. A very different way of getting there.

Your founding team knows your product best. We stay focused on what matters most: visibility, introductions, and the right audience around your work.

We're sustained through sponsors and partnerships, keeping the platform free for innovators. No equity taken.

Oncology is our only vertical. Deeper investor relationships, more relevant mentors, and a community that speaks your language.
