About Us
To promote collaboration in the HealthTech space, we are facilitating the sharing of knowledge and experience for HealthTech start-ups and scale-ups in Scotland, and we invite investment and corporate organisations to contribute to this and become part of our ecosystem. Additionally, we are a hub where companies connect and explore potential business and investment opportunities.
As a high-growth start-up, you will receive support to build your business through open innovation as well as gaining opportunities to showcase your company and connect with corporates, academic institutions, healthcare providers and investors. Investment and corporate organisations are welcome in our ecosystem and the inclusion of various company types and sizes will help to facilitate the support required for each business to achieve its goals in the HealthTech space.
Why HealthTech Scotland
There is need for a cluster resource for collaborative ideation, problem solving and venture building for HealthTech and digital health across Scotland; bringing together a community environment, networks, support and education for start-ups AND scale-ups to help solve many of the global healthcare and societal challenges.
The ‘OPEN’ ecosystem approach provides access to a marketplace for tech founders, along with the investment capital to accelerate their growth across UK & international markets.
A purpose-built and collaborative environment – facilitated by HealthTech Scotland; powered by Vivolution; reducing the time, risk and cost associated of digital transformation and innovation, whilst identifying the ‘qualified’ scale-ups who can help transform the Scottish healthcare service by the creation of scalable diagnostic HealthTech solutions to enhance the patient experience and to help reduce the burden across the NHS, as the economy builds coming out of the pandemic.
Our Purpose
The Scottish healthcare transformation and the creation of new high-growth companies can power a Scottish economic revolution.
High-growth start-ups and scale-ups are significantly more productive than the everyday economy and are highly absorptive of skilled labour and radiate innovation to their customers and supply chains – driving job creation and wage growth (plus, tax revenues) beyond the walls of their own businesses.
We are at a key inflection point in which fundamentally new business models will arise and flourish; the place of innovation and the need for inclusivity is accelerating, particularly across the areas of AI, Data Science, HealthTech; with the potential for unprecedented impact for good across the Scottish economy, patients, NHS, industry, academia, and investors.
