Children's Health Impact Accelerator

 Addressing the unmet needs within paediatric care through technological innovation. The programme is run by leading start-up builder and early-stage investor, Founders Factory, alongside Humant and children’s charity, Thinking of Oscar. It will support the growth of the emerging field of children’s healthtech – from investment to adoption – to secure a healthier adult population for generations to come. 

A 10-week non-equity startup programme based in Liverpool and London, funded by Innovate UK in partnership with Humant, Thinking of Oscar and Founders Factory

The programme is aimed at spinouts, start-ups, and entrepreneurial minded academics. We are looking to support ambitious founders develop and test their innovative solutions by providing expert support, mentorship and connection into key healthcare communities.

Founders will have access to vital resources to help develop and test their innovative solutions for children, including functional support across product, growth and fundraising, access to mentors and expertise across health and life science, as well as an established network of hospitals, such as Alder Hey Children’s Hospital.
