The InnoStars Awards supports start-ups at various growth stages—from MVP and prototype-phase ventures to those already on the market—helping them refine their solutions and scale in Central, Eastern, and Southern Europe.

This two-track programme is designed to accelerate healthcare start-ups at different growth stages—whether you’re refining an MVP or already generating revenue.

Validation Track helps prototype and MVP-stage start-ups build strong business foundations, validate their solutions, and refine their go-to-market strategies.
Investment Track supports revenue-generating start-ups in scaling their businesses, securing funding, and strengthening investor relationships for seed and Series A funding.

Over the past eight years, InnoStars Awards has trained 100+ start-ups, with over half achieving market success. It has also become a key platform for investors seeking promising ventures in biotech, MedTech, and life sciences—a must-attend pit stop in the healthcare start-up journey.
