Top 20 Digital Diabetes<\/a><\/p>\nThe Top 20 of each category received mentoring from chosen experts of our network on various topics, ranging from co-creation experts to regulatory specialists. Additionally, we hosted a Pitch Training session before their big Pitch Day, where they could network and learn from our experts as well as their peers about how to improve their pitch and convince our jury. <\/p>\n

To get ready for the DCB Start-Up Night with pitches and winners\u2019 celebrations, we took all six finalists to a bootcamp in the Swiss Alps. Over the course of four days, we spent our time 1300 meters above sea level with a stunning view and mentoring, pitch training, 1:1 coaching, filming image videos (which were played during the Start-Up Night and we can\u2019t wait to show you soon here on LinkedIn!) and of course, with many fruitful discussions and lots of networking.<\/p>\n
But see for yourself! Our friends at Newsroom Communication were with us every step of the way and prepared a highlight clip to give you a glimpse behind the scenes:<\/p>\n
