A winning strategy for France & Germany
A one-year program designed to build, test, and refine your market access strategy in Europe’s most complex healthcare systems
Expanding into France and Germany is a major opportunity—but also one of the biggest challenges in digital health.

The Go-To-Market Program supports international digital health startups in understanding, navigating, and validating their approach to scale in Europe. Through a structured, one-year journey, the program supports healthtech startups to develop a clear, execution-ready market access strategy tailored to France and Germany.
