Profile

Launchpad Digital Health is the leading U.S. seed fund and mentor in digital health. We partner with entrepreneurs building companies to improve care, lower cost, and increase patient convenience. Launchpad Digital Health's next generation immersion includes: more capital, more time and more intensity for its companies and their founders. Located in San Francisco, it has 27 portfolio company investments to date. Launchpad Digital Health – Ground Zero extends this ecosystem to companies that, with more intensive time and effort over the one-month immersion program, can ready themselves for institutional seed level funding.


More capital, more time, and more intensity:

Each company accepted into the accelerator program receives:
1) more capital in the form of up to a $500,000 investment,
2) more time commitment in the form of a one year program, co-located with other Launchpad Digital Health startups, and
3) more intensity in the form of regular, ongoing engagement with Launchpad Digital Health’s founders, partners and mentors.


We are looking for digital health companies ready to scale their businesses that are focused on:
- Healthy living, wellness, patient compliance
- Remote diagnostics and monitoring
- Electronic health and wellness records
- Data analytical tools and big data
- Independent living support

The founders of Launchpad Digital Health have funded and operated a myriad of companies throughout the healthcare and technology sectors, including digital health companies, for the past two decades.
