About us

Mission
Our mission is to drive meaningful innovation in digital health, leveraging the expertise of our clinicians and researchers to create impactful solutions at scale.
As a dedicated digital health program within a leading hospital, we empower clinicians and researchers to turn their visionary ideas into impactful digital solutions. In the face of rising healthcare costs, staff shortages, and an aging population, the BIH Digital Health Accelerator supports clinicians and researchers to build digital solutions that enhance patient care, optimize hospital operations, and address global healthcare challenges — for the benefit of patients and healthcare systems overall.
Offerings for employees of Charité including BIH
Momentum
Momentum serves as a “no-strings-attached” support for clinicians and researchers (from within Charité, BIH and the DHZC) to receive support, feedback, and gain insight into the different paths available to advance your digital health ideas. Our goal is to enable teams to keep making progress and to find the right fit for support for their project, regardless of whether that is with the BIH DHA program or via academia research grants, third-party collaborations, or by providing you with the guidance you need to bring the project further yourself.
Digital Health Accelerator
The objective of the BIH DHA program at Charité is to support the development of digital health solutions, including medical products and health tech solutions. Apply to the BIH Digital Health Accelerator Program and make your digital health solution come to life. We will help you bring your idea directly into the healthcare system for the benefit of patients and society.
Offerings for innovative digital health companies
Innovation in medicine is driven in particular by technological progress. Match & Connect is an offer to technology and digital health companies and in particular startups worldwide, and at the same time to employees of Charité including BIH in research and clinical practice, to connect for mutual exchange and collaboration.
Offerings for digital health innovators and enthusiasts
For everybody interested in digital health, we regularly offer event formats such as the Digital Health Forum, where you can network with the digital health ecosystem, as well as our annual Demo Day, where audiences get a chance to hear never-before-seen ideas be presented to the public for the first time.
