A new program based in STATION F is designed to support young companies in developing, testing, and deploying their healthcare solutions as closely as possible to care delivery needs. The initiative brings together technological expertise, access to clinical environments, and medical and regulatory support, giving startups direct access to clinical settings, regulatory guidance, and AI assistance to accelerate real-world deployment across Europe’s healthcare systems.
Program Eligibility and Focus
• Target Audience: The program is open to European startups, including both early- and late-stage companies.
• Technology Scope: It welcomes technologies dedicated to the healthcare sector, such as digital solutions, AI, connected devices, or services.
• Impact Area: Projects should demonstrate a rapid, measurable, and concrete impact on the healthcare system. This can include focusing on a specific step of the care pathway—identification, diagnosis, treatment, or follow-up—or innovations that improve the overall efficiency of the healthcare system.
Core Support and Resources
• Doctolib Support: Participants will receive assistance with technology integration, the application of AI in healthcare, understanding practitioners’ expectations, and developing deployment strategies on a European scale.
• @Hôtel-Dieu (AP-HP) Access: Startups gain privileged access to AP-HP innovation platforms and hospital environments. This allows for direct engagement with clinical realities, alignment of solutions with real-world needs, and access to expertise from professionals across the 38 hospitals of Europe’s largest university hospital system.
• Roche Guidance: Roche provides strategic support to navigate the sector’s complexity, helping entrepreneurs master regulatory constraints, demonstrate the health economic value of their projects, and access a global network of scientific experts.
