| I’m excited to share that the American Heart Association is now accepting applications for the 2026 National EmPOWERED to Serve Business Accelerator.
This fully remote, eight-week program is designed to support innovators who are building real-world health solutions and looking to accelerate adoption, growth, and impact.
There are two tracks available:
- Health-Tech Track: for early- and growth-stage founders developing health tech-enabled products and services
- Collegiate Track for students and faculty turning health-focused ideas into action
By participating, you will gain access to mentorship, hands-on training, and a national network to help validate and scale your solutions.
Selected participants will receive a stipend and the opportunity to compete for significant nondilutive funding at the final showcase.
Applications are open now through April 27. Click here to apply now.
