Applications are reviewed in Dec 2015 and 35 semi-finalist teams are selected to attend a two-day Biotech Bootcamp based in San Francisco on February 19 and 20 consisting of workshops and networking opportunities with our mentors and partners. Each team also receives 1-on-1 mentorship from OneStart's industry experts over 7 weeks. The program ends with the Finals Gala, at which 10 exceptional finalist teams compete for the grand prize.
Throughout October launches are being held across the world.
Who will you be working with?
You'll be directly interacting with experts across healthcare and life sciences drawn from pharma, biotech, venture capital, management consulting and more.
