The VITA Accelerator is a novel startup acceleration program launched by CDP Venture Capital together with Healthware Group (acquired by EVERSANA) and Accelerace that aims to support a new generation of digital health startups.
The program aims at accelerating both Italian and foreign startups intending to enter the Italian market in cooperation with key Italian and international operators, investors and corporates.
The Accelerator also has the objective of strengthening and nurturing the Italian digital health ecosystem, as well as promoting it internationally.
SIFI, an Italy-based multinational pharmaceutical and medical devices company, is a partner of VITA Accelerator, supporting the selected startups. Since SIFI is a leading ophthalmological pharmaceutical company that also produces intraocular lenses, there is a strong correlation with GlakoLens’ technology. Therefore, SIFI will be mentoring GlakoLens in Italy and Europe.
