McDermott are delighted to sponsor EIT Health’s Catapult Awards. The awards recognize top European healthcare start-ups with great investment potential, and seek to help connect start ups with investors in biotech, med-tech and digital health.

Every year the Catapult programme sources and accelerates 42 European start-ups by delivering high-quality, bespoke training in business modelling and planning, investment deal negotiation and specialized pitch preparation while giving access to Europe’s top healthcare experts and investors.

Catapult start-ups become part of the EIT Health Community of world leading medtech, biotech, pharma and IT companies and international class research organizations in healthcare.

McDermott will give three prizes:

• McDermott 2021 Catapult prize for Most Promising Biotech
• McDermott 2021 Catapult prize for Most Promising Medtech
• McDermott 2021 Catapult prize for Most Promising Digital Health
