OUR IMPACT

Building a business is hard. But it takes more than funding to get past the hurdles and realise an idea. That's why the BBFH Challenge is about working together. Creating pathways for individuals to seek guidance, feedback and support from industry experts and connect with the right people to help bring more ideas to market that can make a difference to people's health.

 
 

HOURS OF MENTORING and guidance contributed by our community of medtech design and entrepreneurship experts

INVESTED IN CREATING OPPORTUNITIES to collaborate and connect with industry influencers

FUNDING CONTRIBUTED to realising ideas that can make a difference to people's health

ADDITIONAL FUNDING RAISED through working together to build better futures for health
