Assessing the value of an innovative startup in healthcare

Steve Hards

As part of the Healthstartup event, the organisers have published a revised ‘scorecard’ which is a useful checklist in its own right. The objective is “to create a simple, straightforward scorecard specific to the healthcare sector that would allow a potential customer or investor to quickly evaluate a startup along the criteria that matter to such customer or investor. It should also serve as a ‘mirror’ for the startups which will help them better understand their own strengths and weaknesses, and indicate the areas which need more work.” Assessing the value of an innovative startup in healthcare: updated scorecard.
