A 10-week program for AI healthcare founders.

Capital, a curriculum, and a network — from a fund that invests in AI healthcare and nothing else. We write you a check on day one, run a focused 10-week program built around your company, and put you in front of a room full of investors at Demo Day in New York. Scientists first. Investors second.

Cohort 1
September 2026
Duration
10 weeks
Stage
Pre-seed & seed

What you walk away with.

01
A check on day one
$25,000 at acceptance. Perform, and we may increase our allocation with a follow-on investment after Demo Day.
02
Mentors who write checks
Sessions led by our LPs — active investors and operators in AI healthcare — plus clinicians and hospital-system operators.
03
A network three years deep
500+ investor relationships built over three years. VCs, family offices, and angels. We open it to you.
04
Demo Day in New York
End of week 10. You present, then you network — in front of an audience curated for your stage and verticals.
05
Founder perks, and growing
Discounted access to vetted service providers — the tools and partners early companies actually need.

"Every person teaching you is an active check writer. Any one of them could be your next investor."

Built around your cohort. Not a syllabus.

Before week one, we read your prior application to the fund, the exact feedback from the IV Team and our Executive LP Committee, and our own diligence — to pinpoint why you haven't been funded yet. The ten weeks are built around turning those gaps into strengths, with guest lecturers pulled in wherever the cohort needs them.

"No spray-and-pray syllabus. If you've already mastered something, we won't make you sit through the 101."

We don't fund therapeutics. We cap what we take. And we don't pretend ten weeks replaces ten years of operating. What we do is concentrate the right people, capital, and counsel around your company at the moment it matters most — then keep showing up after Demo Day.
