Hello Healthcare Innovators and Enthusiasts!

Justa quick note to help the best teams....

Get On Stage at AC⚡VC 🔥 Highway to HLTH 

Las Vegas is the next stop on our MedStartr Momentum (#MedMo) World Tour where we look for the best startups in the world to invest in and accelerate. We have tons of news to share but here is the critical thing this morning: If you have a healthcare startup or know a great one that could use some investment and acceleration, please apply and / or pass this message on to those who should apply.  We have stacks of cash to hand out on stage so this isn't just a trophy, it's an investment done in almost real-time.  Each deal is different and teams will need to sign investment paperwork and accept our extremely fair (it is my name :) offers, but all teams selected for the stage win in our challenges!  Deadline is 11/5 so apply now or forward this email where needed!

Many of the biggest names in healthcare got their first funding and acceleration from MedStartr contests like this.  Medable won our first contest at Healthdatapalooza in 2012 and the last time we were in Vegas, UniteUs took first prize.  Since then we have run over 160 contests, started our second fund and proven the value of the MedStartr Accelerator - the teams we have helped in our our portfolio have become some of the fastest-growing companies in healthcare. 
 

What's this about #ACVC? 

AC⚡VC isn't just some cheesy rip-off for one of our favorite bands, or a way to honor our friend, entrepreneur, and fellow metalhead, Mike Antonucci who died in January, it ALSO stands for exactly what we and our crowds do: Accelerate Crowd-Validated Companies  When we run contests like this we find the best startups to put on stage and ask the crowd to help us decide who wins. This also helps get these ideas going further faster than ever, accelerating them. Why? Because our Crowd includes over 150,000 people like you and organizations like HLTH, the AMA, and now our portfolio company leaders like Valera Health, Direct Shifts, Mymee, YourCoach, Helpp.ai, Offscrip Health and Care+Wear, who get involved and tell us what they think about the teams in our contests.  And then that same crowd of amazing people very often includes the startups' next big customers, investors, team members, and partners, Accelerating Crowd⚡Validated Companies 🚀

What Can You Win?

  • Customers: Being on our stages, which are typically the most well-attended at any conference and livestreamed to often larger audiences, is your first benefit.  Insightful questions from our incredible panel of judges (Amy Gleason, Mike Greeley, Lisa Suennen, Nick Adkins, and Matt Holt to name a few) will give you the chance to impress the hell out of people looking for innovations like yours.  And don't forget the up to 2,000 other people in the audience that will be watching.  They get a vote too and you get access to all the data, contacts, feedback, investment and pilot interest, team and mentor joins! 

  • Coaching: We will pitch coach you significantly before and you WILL get things happening afterward.  Honestly, this is the biggest prize for any startup since the terms on a Bill of Sale are far better than from a VC (except us!)

  • Investment and / or Acceleration: We will be handing out stacks of cash totaling of at least $25,000 to at least one of the winners on stage and accepting at least two into our next accelerator class. 

  • 1 Free Ticket to the Conference: Startups chosen will be given one (1) free ticket to attend the conference if they have not yet registered. 

  • Tons of Promotion before, during and after the event.  

So, as you can see, everyone wins in a #MedMo #ACVC Challenge.

What does that investment look like? 

Before the awards ceremony, you will be presented with a customized offer based on the stage of your company and how much the crowd loved you.  Worst case scenario, it is a SAFE note at whatever your last or current round was at.  Best Case you are fully accepted into our WInter 2022 Accelerator class and will receive much more than a little cash. 

​This is your big chance.  Deadline is Nov 5, so don't delay, Apply Today!
