Healthcare is the largest industry in the world, yet much of its infrastructure still runs on fragmented software, manual workflows, and administrative overhead. Recent advances in foundation models and AI agents have created an opportunity to rethink how healthcare is delivered, from the clinician desktop to the insurance back office to the patient experience.
Throughout the day you'll work directly with venture investors, startup founders, physicians, and operators who spend every day building healthcare companies.
Teams will leave with relationships, recruiting opportunities, and potentially the foundation for their next startup.
Whether you're already building in healthcare or just discovering the space, you'll spend the day working on problems that matter.
What Should You Build?
Build something that meaningfully improves healthcare.
We're less interested in incremental AI wrappers and more interested in products that unlock new capabilities, create new business models, or solve long-standing problems across the healthcare ecosystem.
Some areas we're especially excited about include:
🧬 Care Delivery & Clinical Innovation
Home-based care
Specialty care access
Precision medicine
Clinical trial enrollment
Diagnostics
Imaging
Robotics
Aging and longevity
New care delivery models
🏥 Healthcare Infrastructure & Financing

These are examples, not constraints. If you have a compelling idea that improves healthcare, feel free to build it because we want to see it!
