DC Tech Meetup #95: Healthtech Edition
Healthtech After the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference in San Francisco: From Global Signals to DC Innovation
Earlier this year, we were on the ground in San Francisco at the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference — the world’s largest and most influential annual gathering of healthcare and life sciences investors, executives, and innovators.
While much of the conversation happens behind closed doors, the signals coming out of the conference shape where capital flows, which healthtech models gain traction, and how founders should think about building and scaling in the year ahead.
DC Tech Meetup #95 brings those insights back to Washington, DC - and connects them directly to the innovation happening here at home.
This special healthtech edition of DCTM will translate lessons from JPM into practical, founder-relevant takeaways, while spotlighting DC-area startups actively building, piloting, and scaling healthcare solutions.
