November 29, 2021

Healthtech was the eleventh theme of Startups Watch’s Demo Day. The online event was on 24 November, where Serkan Ünsal was the moderator of the event. 

According to the World Health Organization, healthtech is "the use of structured knowledge and skills in the form of equipment, medications, vaccinations, procedures, and systems developed to solve a health problem and improve people's quality of life."

Both the main speaker and the jury of the online event was Berktuğ İncekaş of Eczacıbaşı Momentum. Serkan invited Berktuğ to the stage to learn more about the vision of Eczacıbaşı on healthtech. As we all know, Eczacıbaşı’s core sectors are building products, consumer products, mining, and healthcare. Eczacıbaşı Momentum is a corporate venture capital fund founded in late 2019. They aim to reach startups in the sectors they are into and benefit both society and startups. As Eczacıbaşı Momentum has two ways of investing: one as an LP to funds or directly to startups. Yet they have invested in 11 startups, and their investment range differs from E-commerce to healthtech, from edtech to fintechs. He explained their thoughts on the future of healthtech and toward the pandemic and how their whole vision to the health sector across the globe has a holistic approach. He says the three stages of investments that we see are staying healthy, treatment, and the aftercare stage. Lastly, he adds that they can see the digitalization of health worldwide.
