Since 2016, we are proud partner of EIT Health running together EIT Health Validation Lab.
EIT Health Bootcamp Validation Lab is a unique two-month pressure cooker, created by YES!Delft and EIT Health partners, who bring extensive knowledge to the project. The program has strong partnerships with leading healthcare institutes, such as UMCG, Medical Valley, City of Rotterdam, University of Copenhagen and more.
The program allows aspiring entrepreneurs from all over Europe to discover the business potential of their MedTech ideas. Participants explore and validate their ideas, market potential and business model – to launch in markets all over Europe. The program will introduce them to the European innovation ecosystem, and help them develop a network of peers, experts, and mentors.
A proven method consisting of workshops, peer-2-peer coaching, field excursions, and networking events. Receive input and feedback from fellow participants, experienced trainers and personal mentors.
This EIT Health Bootcamp program targets business professionals, students, PhDs, engineers and scientists who want to test the commercial feasibility of their ideas. Participants work in teams to develop the skills needed to launch their ideas as a startup.
Find your problem/solution fit, a validated customer segment and a value proposition design that responds to the actual needs of your customer. We use methods from Steve Blank’s Lean Launchpad and Alexander Osterwalder’s Value Proposition Design. You will test the correctness of your assumptions by talking to as many potential customers as possible.
The most valuable lesson for us was market-fit: we found potential launching customers not only in Africa, but also in Europe. The Validation Lab really challenged us to think critically about our ambitions and business plan and identify our a beachhead market.
My role as mentor is very broad: I help startups through the process of validation by helping them to connect to people in the business, help them with their business plan and convince them to do what’s right.
