Early-stage founders and innovators: learn how to choose the right market before taking a health technology global, at this free Cicada HealthTech Hub masterclass on 5 November at the Western Sydney Startup Hub, with guidance from Austrade, global commercial leaders and founders who have done it.

For an early-stage health innovator, understanding the target market can be crucial in turning good technology into a viable venture, however simple or sophisticated that technology is.

This masterclass works through the questions founders and research teams face when they start thinking about where to launch. Do you go international first, or build at home? How do you read a political and investment landscape that keeps shifting, and still attract interest locally and from offshore? And how do payer value and reimbursement fit into a market decision from the very start, rather than as an afterthought?

Over a morning tea at the Western Sydney Startup Hub, join us to network with founders, export advisors and commercialisation experts and learn about the incentives and support available at a government level, the sector and learned experience.

Who this is for

This morning tea masterclass discussion is built for early to seed stage healthtech ventures who wants to hear and connect directly with sector representatives, industry partners who are weighing up where and when to take a health innovation to market.
