Bridgehead: Take your business abroad

EIT Health’s Bridgehead brings together European health entrepreneurs who want to grow their business beyond their home market with the world’s top incubators and accelerators who have the expertise and resources to make it happen.

We will help match your scale-up with an incubator or accelerator from EIT Health’s approved network – we call these organisations our Catalysers. Together, you will plan how to access new markets quickly and decisively, tap into local networks of partners and clients, access infrastructure and understand new regulatory systems.

The programme is split into:

• Bridgehead Europe
• Bridgehead Global

Whichever programme you successfully apply for, you will be given the seasoned expertise, insight and support needed to help realise your business ambitions.
