About The Healthcare Challenge

The goal of the Healthcare Challenge is to help the Belgian healthcare industry transition towards more sustainability and circularity, by connecting the sector with circular start-ups. In 2024 and 2025, 20 Belgian start-ups joined this sector-specific accelerator programme, not only sharpening their circular business skills under the watchful eye of our mentors, but also testing their solution in collaboration with the healthcare institutions that have partnered with the Circular kickstart. This is a unique opportunity for the participants to gain access to a market that's otherwise difficult to access for newcomers.
