When Health Goes "BIM"!
On June 22 and 23, thesecond session of the Montpellier Innovation Booster (B.I.M.) was held, focusing on the “healthcare” pillar. Two days of workshops and coaching to help participants unlock their innovative potential.
A rich and very interesting session featuring nine participating projects! The projects were at different stages but shared a common goal: to enable society to benefit from these technologies, which have the potential to be revolutionary. For example, therapeutic solutions for certain diseases (obesity, malaria, cystic fibrosis, brain tumors, etc.) as well as medical and/or digital devices. After two days of workshops and coaching, the program concluded with a pitch session in front of a jury composed of scientific experts and innovation experts.
“Thank you once again to all the participants who showed such determination in showcasing their work, as well as to the speakers and coaches who helped them structure their action plans and present them orally. And of course, a big thank you to the jury members for their valuable and constructive feedback!” said Manon Chittaro, organizer of this second session. All of the projects presented will receive support from the University of Montpellier and its partners in the I-SITE MUSE project of excellence, in order to meet their specific needs (research collaboration, technology transfer, business creation, and funding).
This program is funded through the Occitanie Region’s PRIME initiative and the TRUE (Transforming Universities Towards Entrepreneurship) call for projects.
