Many young people dream of implementing their ideas in their own startup – including in the field of digitalization and health. But what does the path from idea to successful startup look like? In this episode of the Digital Public Health Podcast, host Rasmus Cloes talks to Jan Wessels, founder of bremen-startups.de.
Together they highlight the opportunities and challenges for founders in the healthcare industry and take a special look at the Bremen startup scene.
Jan Wessels explains how important networks and events are for founders to take their first steps and learn from the experiences of others. He shares insights into what formats are available in Bremen, how they work and how interested parties can easily network. He also shows how valuable an active startup community is for the journey from idea to implementation.
One exciting example from Bremen is Skinuvita, a startup that has developed a digital home therapy system for people with chronic skin conditions. Rasmus and Jan discuss how an innovative business idea was developed from a personal problem and what role networks and funding programs played in the process.
They also discuss why founders in the healthcare sector often struggle with concerns – for example, about bureaucracy or the high demands of the market. Jan explains how to overcome these hurdles and why it pays to find the courage to implement.
