12 MedTech startups from BE x SCMH accelerator that should be on everyone radar

From minimally invasive surgery (MIS), surgical robotics, to 3D printing medical technology for bone-related surgeries, these twelve brilliant startups which tackle topics like MIS, medical devices and AI healthcare would change the landscape of the healthcare industry.  

On Saturday (Aug, 28th), BE x SCMH accelerator demo day kicked off online. The three-hour event presented an opportunity for the accelerator’s newest class of startups to showcase what they’ve developed.

In addition to this marvelous event, BE and SCMH collaborate with Zhi Kang Venture Capital to release the $ 35M USD fund to invest in mature-stage startups including Series A & B funding to gear up entrepreneurs to penetrate the global market.
