Venture Leaders Medtech 2024 kick-off their Boston roadshow

In November, the ten Venture Leaders Medtech 2024 will represent Switzerland and pitch their solutions in Boston, USA. During their weeklong roadshow, the entrepreneurs will meet with investors, experts, and industry leaders to strengthen their network and advance global growth. The founders met at the startup space to introduce themselves and their startups and showcased their innovations at an online pitch session.

During the event on September 18th, the Venture Leaders Medtech 2024 learned more about each other’s innovations, talked about their startup journeys thus far, and pitched virtually their Medtech ventures. Audience members then voted for the team captain and selected Greta Preatoni, Co-Founder and CEO of MYNERVA, for the honor. "This represents a fantastic opportunity, as the US is MYNERVA's target market. Venture Leaders Medtech will help us forge strategic partnerships and connect with investors," said Greta.

As members of the Swiss National Startup Team, the Venture Leaders share a defined objective: to establish themselves as leading global entities and to boost their worldwide growth endeavours. “Preparing for this roadshow for the 18th year is a tribute to the quality of innovation and the startups that have been part of this journey,” shared Stefan Steiner, co-managing director of Venturelab. “I can’t wait to join this new edition and support the team in its international expansion.”

Venture Leaders Medtech is organized by Venturelab and Swissnex Boston and New York and supported by EPFL, ETH Zürich, Hansjörg Wyss, Health Innovation Hub Aargau, Kellerhals Carrard, Canton de Vaud, Canton of Zurich, and Vischer.
