Entrepreneural Life Science Accelerator ELSA Pitch Bowl \u2013 Future Life Science Innovation on stage<\/strong><\/p>\n

12 life science startups and founding teams, an expert jury with 4 personalities from the investment sector, 3 renowned program partners and plenty of room for innovation, inspiration, and exchange \u2013 welcome to this year’s ELSA Pitch Bowl!<\/p>\n

ELSA stands for Entrepreneurial Life Science Accelerator and describes the path that our academic startup teams have taken over the last few months: Within three intensive check-ins at the Life Science Factory, the teams received 1:1 coaching sessions, impulses from industry experts and valuable support to sharpen their business model and validate their startup idea. The ELSA program is run by the partners Fraunhofer AHEAD, Helmholtz Munich and the Life Science Factory, and the ELSA Pitch Bowl is the final event in front of a broad audience.<\/p>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n <\/span>register now<\/span>\n <\/a>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
