How the Program Works
Following the application period, a small subset of finalists will be selected for further diligence through our accelerator Bootcamp.
Bootcamp is a no strings attached engagement engineered to determine the most suitable match between participating companies and TMC members and partners. In addition, teams will be connected with mentors and clinical stakeholders who will advise on clinical and business strategies.
Following Bootcamp, a subset of companies will be accepted into the Accelerator, a six-month program focused on maturing these strategic relationships.
We measure success based on participating companies securing traction within the Texas Medical Center and our affiliated partners.
