Who We Are
A community of interdisciplinary subject matter experts that includes clinicians, end-users, entrepreneurs, industry partners, legal and regulatory affairs experts, marketing and sales leaders, organizational decision makers, researchers, venture capitalists, and more.
We provide mentorship and coaching to our innovators on a wide range of topics to help you grow and scale your solutions.
Want to join us? Apply to become a coach today. Currently we are recruiting startup mentors from Canada and the US in the following areas:
- Regulatory Affairs Specialists (e.g., Health Canada, FDA, CE Mark)
- Reimbursement Specialists (e.g., Medicare, Medicaid, Manage Care Organizations, Provincial Ministries)
What We Do
CABHI matches innovators to specific, relevant coaches, and coaches volunteer a set number of hours per month to help you meet your business milestones.
For example, your team may work with a coach on:
- Accessing new business funding and/or investment to sustain and scale a solution
- Developing and refining business development and marketing materials
- Expanding networks and connecting innovators with key players to scale a solution
- Highlighting emerging needs and gaps in the aging and innovation landscapes to guide a solution’s alignment and growth opportunities
- Navigating the health care system and determining innovation pathways and adoption tactics
