The Parc Taulí Research and Innovation Institute (I3PT) announces the opening of the registration period for the fifth edition of the BRING_IT Support Program. Until September 29, 2024, interested persons may send their applications to participate in this new edition, which will take place from October 2024 to January 2025.

BRING_IT is a program designed to help develop and mature innovative ideas in the field of health, especially those at an early stage of development. The main objective is support projects that have already identified a potential solution for an unmet need, providing the necessary tools to value the product and facilitate its future transfer to the market. In addition, projects that reach a certain maturity can continue to develop in the following programs offered by the Institute.

The Program, based on methodology Boston CEMETERY (adapted to Catalonia by CIMTI), addresses the development and progress of health innovation projects from four key domains: clinical, market and business, regulatory and technology. The work methodology focuses on the achievement of specific milestones for each of the domains to advance development in a faster, orderly and efficient manner. It is organized in four phases:

1. Detection of unmet need: Identification of problems and areas of opportunity in the field of health.
2. Development of the idea: Creation and development of an innovative solution to address the identified needs.
3. Preparation of pitch: Preparation for their presentation at the Demo Day, where they will be evaluated by experts.
4. Competitive call: Participants will have the opportunity to present their projects in competitive calls for funding and additional support.

Participate in Bring_IT and transform your idea into reality! From the I3PT, we invite the research teams and health professionals belonging to the associated units to take advantage of this unique opportunity to promote their innovative projects.
