Past Challenge Examples
Each challenge has its own sponsor, topic, prize, and judges. Here's what a co-branded MedStartr CrowdChallenge looks like.
Sponsor a challenge to meet the teams you're looking for.
Whether you're sourcing customers, pilots, partners, or investments — you set the topic, bring judges and a prize, and get first contact with every team in your track.
Apply & intake
Sponsors define the challenge and prize; a judging panel is formed. Startups apply or get matched from the companies already on MedStartr.ai — and sponsors get early, exclusive access to vet competitors before the public round.
Public showcase
Teams go live on a co-branded showcase where the crowd — doctors, patients, partners, investors — reviews and backs them for ~30 days. Engagement and AI scoring identify the top teams.
Live pitch finals
Top teams pitch live. Sponsor judges and the audience vote. Winners receive the prizes, meet the sponsor, and can be fast-tracked to the MedStartr Acceleration Program.
