DeviceTalks Weekly: Ep.5 –What impact is COVID-19 having on start-ups?
Raising capital for start-up is never easy. Try doing it during a pandemic.
In this week’s DeviceTalks Weekly, we’ll try to help entrepreneurs by talking with two guests who are committed to helping start-ups find the funding they need.
Paul Grand, founder and CEO of MedTech Innovator, explains how he’s working to keep start-ups connected to capital. His popular MedTech Innovator program is adapting to the times and creating new ways for start-ups to get in front of investors.
We’ll also talk with Shai Policker, CEO at MEDX Xcelerator, an incubator backed by Boston Scientific, Intellectual Ventures and others. Based in Israel, MEDX is moving forward and interested in investing capital in start-ups worldwide.
Co-host Chris Newmarker, executive editor, life sciences, for WTWH Media, also updates us on what articles are drawing the most interest on MassDevice and Medical Design and Outsourcing.
