Wisconsin - Healthcare Innovation Pitch (HIP) – October 2026

The Healthcare Innovation Pitch (HIP) program identifies and supports promising healthcare and healthtech companies through structured review, founder interviews, investor diligence, and live pitch opportunities. This application is for companies seeking to pitch at the Wisconsin HIP event. Please provide a detailed executive summary and pitch deck that clearly communicates the problem being addressed, the proposed solution, market opportunity, team, traction, intellectual property, regulatory considerations, financing history, and current investment opportunity. Applications will be reviewed by the Venture Intelligence team and HIP leadership. Selected companies will be invited to an in-person pitch to a curated panel of investors on October 20, 2026. At the end of this application, you'll choose a password for your Venture Intelligence account. After submitting the application, you may login to your account to update any documents attached to your application.

9Investor visibility

Whether investors can find your company, and which kinds. You can change this later from your account.

Listing your company puts its name, website and headquarters in front of the kind of investors you pick below. Your documents and your application answers are not included — an investor still has to be granted those separately. Keeping it private changes nothing about your application; the review team reads it either way.

Which kinds of investor?

Pick at least one, or switch back to private above.

10Your account

We create your account as part of this application so you can follow it afterwards. If you have applied before, choose Log in and use your existing password — your company is already attached to it.

Submitting creates your account and sends your materials to the review team. Large files can take a moment — the page will move on once everything has arrived.
