SDVF is part of the ADA Innovation Challenge expert panel
The Swiss Diabetes Venture Fund (SDVF), which DCB‘s CEO Derek Brandt is general partner of, will be part of the expert panel of the Diabetes Innovation Challenge run by the American Diabetes Association (ADA). The Innovation Challenge will be part of the 83rd Scientific Sessions from June 23–26 in San Diego, CA.
For their Innovation Challenge, the ADA is welcoming emerging companies to pitch pioneering ideas in support of improving the lives of people living with diabetes. Five finalists will be selected to present in front of a live audience at the ADA’s Scientific Sessions in San Diego.
The three winning start-ups will be selected by the audience and the panel of expert judges from the Swiss Diabetes Venture Fund, The Helmsley Charitable Trust, and StartUp Health. Winners will earn an opportunity to attend a private event with the three judges and the Chief Scientific and Medical Officer of ADA, Dr. Robert Gabbay immediately following the presentation.
Applications are open until 5 May. More information can be found here.
