The NSW Health Commercialisation Training Program is designed by experts to nurture innovative, early-stage health tech solutions, and help innovators to build sustainable businesses in NSW.
Delivered by deep tech incubator Cicada Innovations, the Program supports innovators to build skills and knowledge on how to commercialise innovations successfully, form stronger networks across the state, and nurture novel medical technology.
The Program is open to researchers, scientists, clinicians, entrepreneurs, intrapreneurs and those in the health sector who are working on a novel medical device, diagnostic or therapeutic product, or a software that is considered a medical device. Participants can join at any point of the program, depending on the stage of their health innovation.
Upcoming events and seminars
These three day courses will provide practical advice and guidance on how to build a successful and sustainable health tech business. Experts across the areas of diagnostics, pharmaceuticals and therapeutics, medical devices, and software as a medical device will provide crucial knowledge of their sector, connections to other industry experts and feedback on products and businesses participants are building.
Free for NSW-based participants.
