We are thrilled to announce that CoNurse has been selected as one of the 40 finalists in the prestigious 2024 EIT Health InnoStars Awards programme! This is a remarkable opportunity for CoNurse to showcase our innovative solutions in healthcare and continue our mission to revolutionise patient care.

EIT Health InnoStars Awards: Empowering Startups to Drive Healthcare Innovation
The EIT Health InnoStars Awards programme has reached an exciting milestone in its 2024 edition. Out of 121 applications, 40 of the most promising startups, including CoNurse, were selected to participate in this flagship accelerator programme. Over the next two months, these startups will engage in rigorous bootcamps and unique board simulations designed to refine their business strategies and accelerate their impact.
The programme culminates in the Grand Final, to be held on 27 November 2024 in Budapest. At this event, the top three startups in each of the programme’s two tracks—the Validation Track and the new Investment Track—will secure financial prizes ranging from €10,000 to €25,000, along with networking opportunities with investors and industry experts.
What does EIT Health InnoStars Awards mean for CoNurse?
As a finalist, CoNurse is positioned to benefit immensely from the accelerator programme. The Validation Track, in particular, aligns with our current stage of growth, offering support to refine our product and business model. Participation in bootcamps will help us strengthen our value proposition, while board simulations will challenge us to perfect our pitch as we prepare to present at the Grand Final.
Being part of the InnoStars Awards is more than just an opportunity for recognition—it’s a chance for CoNurse to tap into the vast network of EIT Health InnoStars Partners, healthcare providers, and investors. With support from industry leaders, we aim to push our innovation forward, bringing our solution to market and improving patient care on a larger scale.
InnoStars Awards: A Catalyst for Startups
Since its inception, the EIT Health InnoStars Awards has supported over 100 startups, many of which have already made significant strides in healthcare innovation. More than half of the programme’s alumni have successfully brought their life-saving innovations to market, driving meaningful advancements in healthcare.
This year, the programme features two tracks:
- The Validation Track: Focuses on refining Minimum Viable Products (MVPs) and prototypes, ideal for startups at the early stages of product development.
- The Investment Track: Targets startups ready for Seed or Series A funding, offering opportunities to secure capital and scale their innovations.
CoNurse’s participation in the Validation Track will equip us with the tools and insights necessary to continue fine-tuning our product and laying the groundwork for future growth.
What’s Next for CoNurse?
As we embark on this exciting journey, CoNurse is committed to making the most of this opportunity. Our team is preparing for the upcoming bootcamps, where we will further sharpen our business strategies and product development. The culmination of our efforts will be showcased at the Grand Final in Budapest, where we will present our innovation to a panel of industry experts and investors.
The potential rewards are significant, with the chance to secure a financial prize and, more importantly, gain the mentorship, support, and connections necessary to take CoNurse to the next level.
