DHP Supports Digital Healthcare Growth... 'Scale-Up' Program Underway

Digital Healthcare Partners (DHP) announced on the 23rd that it will conduct the 'Scale-Up' program, an accelerator program specialized for digital healthcare startups.

Starting next month, this program, which will be conducted by DHP with support from Seoul Business Agency (SBA) and Seoul Startup Hub Gongdeok, targets early-stage startups within 7 years in the digital healthcare field. Selected companies will participate in DHP's accelerating process for 4 months, including one-on-one mentoring, networking, demo days, and connections with investors. Approximately five startups will be selected, and outstanding teams among them will have the opportunity to secure investments of up to 100 million KRW.

DHP was established in 2016, led by CEO Choi Yoonseop and healthcare and medical experts. Even before digital healthcare gained significant attention after the COVID-19 pandemic, DHP has continuously focused on investing exclusively in the digital healthcare sector, pioneering the related field. So far, it has formed a total of six blind funds mainly funded by healthcare-related companies, medical professionals, and senior entrepreneurs. DHP has invested in and accelerated a total of 36 digital healthcare startups, including Three Billion, Doctor Diary, Huray Positive, Gangnam Unnie, Happy Monday, and New Base.

CEO Choi Yoonseop said, “Based on the know-how accumulated over the past seven years of investing in and nurturing startups in the digital healthcare field, we will help the startups participating in this program to grow meaningfully,” and added, “We look forward to many startups aiming to achieve medical innovation together with DHP to apply.”

The application deadline for this digital healthcare startup Scale-Up program is until the 31st of this month. Applications are being accepted through the DHP website.
