July 30 - August 1, 2024 Nashville, Tennessee
The existing business of healthcare in the United States is overdue for disruption. The current system overly focuses on downstream “sick care” and disease management. The incentive structure that’s centered around third-party insurers is broken. And true care delivery innovation faces undue barriers to reach the majority of Americans.
Do you want to rethink the business of healthcare?
We have a different vision.
We believe every American should be empowered with access to innovative and affordable health care and resources that help them live healthier, more meaningful lives.
Join us for the Alignment Retreat
The retreat will bring together 15 high-potential entrepreneurs who are driven to develop moonshot ventures that change the face of health care.
What sets the Alignment Retreat apart:
Founder-Purpose Alignment: You’ll develop alignment across your experience, skills, and passion to change health care through a series of virtual sessions and knowledge-sharing leading up to the Retreat, as well as coaching and sessions during the Retreat.
Deep Dive into Health Care Problems: Explore the most pressing issues in health care in a “problem store” of reverse pitches from health care experts, journey mapping sessions, and structured conversations.
Build Real Relationships: Connect meaningfully with peers and subject matter experts that are closest to the problem, both in-person during the Retreat and in a virtual community before and after the Retreat.
— We Believe
We believe that society’s greatest challenges are entrepreneur’s greatest opportunities. At Stand Together Ventures Lab (STVL), we Invest and Build to change society with founders who are obsessed with showing that better is possible.
Our mission is to serve founders building tech moonshots for America, projects that:
Tackle the most formidable barriers that hold people back, embodying the belief that transformative change is not only necessary but achievable.
Demonstrate the superiority of empowerment-based, bottoms-up solutions, showcasing that these innovative approaches not only challenge but decisively outperform traditional, top-down alternatives in addressing societal needs.
