Hey Everyone,

We will be livestreaming our Good ViVEations pitch contest at the ViVE Conference and we invite you to register, watch, and vote from wherever you are! Register here and you will get all the updates and appear in the attendee list.

We really want your input on the teams so be welcome to use the online judging sheet and tell us what you think about the teams!

As you likely know, H2NYC was the seed from which MedStartr.com and MedStartr.VC grew and while we still run the meetup group from whence we came, we also run pitch contests in 30 cities to drive healthcare innovation around the US and find the best startups to invest in. In our new partnership with the HLTH conferences, we are bringing our unique approach to selecting our accelerator and portfolio companies at the ViVE Conference on March 7th.

The contest will run in classic MedStartr style with a Miami flare! Starting off the show we have a slam poet to read a work about startups. Then jumping right into the pitches, each having 4 minutes to present and 4 minutes of Q&A.

We are also pleased to support the #PatientVoice movement and #TheWalkingGallery at #ViVe2022, so follow all those hashtags on your favorite social media platforms to be part of all the action.
