Thank You to Everyone Who Joined Us at Impact Launchpad!

 

Thank you to everyone who joined us at the first Impact Launchpad pitch competition! And very special thanks to Morrison Foerster’s Boston office for hosting us in the beautiful 200 Club.

More than 100 researchers, clinicians, investors, founders, students, faculty, and life science leaders joined us to learn, network while viewing selected poster presentations, and watch as eight presenters pitched their healthcare innovations to an expert panel of judges.

And the winner of the 50K Grand Prize is…

🏆 Eye Care, led by Camille André, PharmD, PhD! Eye Care aims to block eye infection at its earliest step by identifying multidrug-resistant bacteria, shifting care from treatment to true prevention of vision loss.

💐 Congratulations to all our pitch presenters who made it to the final stage! The journey doesn’t stop here — all finalists will be matched with an experienced mentor or mentor team for long-term support to accelerate their innovation along the translational spectrum.
