Advocate Aurora Health has entered a partnership with MATTER, a Chicago-based health care incubator and innovation hub, in an effort to drive entrepreneurship in health care delivery.
Under the new collaboration, the two organizations are launching a nationwide competition called the Health Tech Venture Challenge that will invite entrepreneurs to create new solutions to challenges in primary care delivery.
The Health Tech Venture Challenge will offer one startup a $10,000 cash prize and curated sessions with experts based on its needs. Advocate Aurora Health, which has dual headquarters in Downers Grove, Illinois and Milwaukee, will also consider opportunities with contest finalists to further develop and pilot technologies at its more than 500 sites in Illinois and Wisconsin.
