The HIP events have been a unique experience and fills a needed gap of aligning vetted early stage health companies with multi-faceted investors that are also expert advisors and potential adopters of the startups product or services.
Funding with followthru. Great model

Samir does a thorough job at ensuring there’s value all around — for entrepreneurs & for HIP members/investors. His thoroughness gets to direct feedback and action for founders which I appreciate. Coming at this as a previous founder is another true differentiator.

HIP is redefining how innovative ideas and the companies that create them get positioned in the healthcare investment community. If you are a founder of a digital health startup there is no better place to get smart seed money. If you are an investor, because of the curated environment that HIP has created you can use your time and capital more effectively.

Dr. Gary Goldman
FOUNDER, GLOBAL HEALTH IMPACT FUND
I am involved in several angel groups and really like HIP. HIP offers both sides: great start-up investments that have been vetted and an investor community that really understands the healthcare space. It offers a networking opportunity with many great professionals and opportunity to join an organization that is constantly expanding and improving. Samir does a great job in managing and organizing HIP and is constantly thinking about ways to improve. Lastly, but perhaps most importantly, I really enjoy interacting with the individuals in the group, they are all great people.
