  • Supporters of IPIHD interested in meeting innovators in person and diving deeper into their innovative healthcare models

 
What will this conference achieve?

  • For innovators and entrepreneurs with a sustainable business model, the AIIC presents a chance to explore funding and mentoring opportunities to grow current successful business models into new territories.
  • Investors can benefit from AIIC by discovering emerging markets in which to potentially conduct business, along with key contacts in these markets.
  • Supporters can network with innovators and investors and gain a deeper understanding of challenges and opportunities for healthcare innovators they mentor and support.
