This is a very special episode of the Podcast as it is the first video podcast, recorded live during the Final Pitch Event of the 2023 Children's Health Impact Accelerator, in London at the Science Gallery.  If you wish to watch this episode, you can find it over on our Thinking of Oscar You Tube page.

In October 2023, David had the fortune of chairing an accelerator dedicated to Children’s Health in collaboration with London based Accelerator and Venture Builder Founders Factory, on behalf of UKRI / Innovate UK.  

During the event we were fortunate enough to have a wonderful quartet of innovators who agreed to come on stage and talk about the opportunities, and some of the things to look out for, when financing a start-up focused on children’s health. 

We are therefore delighted to share with you all a live recording of the panel conversation which included insights and guidance from Paediatric Venture leaders, John Parker and Marc Ramis, Children’s Health Innovation leader from Alder Hey Children’s Hospital Emma Hughes and wonderfully chaired by Founders Factory’s own healthtech investor Claire Mongeau.

Full details of each of the 10 wonderful start-ups who formed part of the accelerator can be found below:

🌟Happy Marlo
🌟ConsoneAI Ltd
🌟Goal Manager®
🌟Tutti Toot
🌟Hibi Health
🌟Grow with Iris
🌟Envisionit Deep AI®
🌟Moti Me
🌟Lorestry
🌟Tender Touch

I hope you all enjoy the conversation and please share and continue to shout from the rooftops the importance of investment in children’s health, not in the future, but now!
