Incubator is an eight-week mentorship program for early-stage healthcare founders to advance their product. Participants gain access to mentors from the Mount Sinai Health System, SDoH leaders, and local community organizations. Our goal is to equip you with the tools to accelerate your venture. After the program, DIH continues support through monthly brand-building and collaboration initiatives to foster ongoing growth.
Details
The incubator will host 10 early stage start-ups to help guide them towards the creation of their MVP. Each week will consist of a rotation of check-ins with business mentors, project managers, developers, other incubator teams, and capacity building workshops. The program will conclude with a final demo day to the Mount Sinai community and Venture Capital investors.
