BRTC Meet the Members: Corporate Role in Health Tech Startup Innovation

Join the Baltimore Regional Tech Council (BRTC) on November 3rd for our Meet the Members networking reception and panel discussion around building win-win partnerships between health tech innovators and corporations at 1501 Health in Baltimore:

Corporate Role in Health Tech Startup Innovation – Building Win-Win Partnerships

Corporates can play a critical role in helping fill gaps and connect dots for startups, providing resources like mentorship, access to learnings and matchmaking with various capital sources. Support like this is essential to an early-stage startup’s success who are almost always working with limited resources. On the other side of that coin, welcoming start-ups into a corporate ecosystem has been proven to foster a more entrepreneurial internal mindset, provide access to adjacent market insights, and bring more agility to R&D operations. What are key learnings to acknowledge in achieving a startup-corporate collaboration? How do we ensure a win-win partnership that is rooted in aligned goals and expectations? 

Join us for this panel discussion which will feature leaders from both corporate and start-up ecosystem who will share tips, lessons learned, and best practices.
