Innovators

An innovator is someone with a great idea in the healthcare industry ready to take their enterprise to the next level. Many innovators have the experience required to create technologies and research that could improve the quality of healthcare and need capital to bring their ideas to market or fund their next expansion. Emerging Healthcare Collaborative’s innovator networking opportunities give healthcare leaders the language and strategic connections they need to communicate their economic value to investors and move research, innovation and healthcare expansion forward.

Investors

An investor is a leader in the business community, though not necessarily involved in the healthcare industry. They actively seek thought-leaders and emerging opportunities in which to invest. Many investors, however, shy away from the medical industry because the technology and terminology is hard to comprehend. In response, Emerging Healthcare Collaborative has launched a series of networking and educational opportunities. A monthly series of investor luncheons equip key business stakeholders with the knowledge and connections necessary to invest and grow their capital in the future of New Orleans healthcare.
