Success: four Hungarian healthcare innovators among Europe’s bests – video

Clavicont, DiabTrend, HepC and Spicy Analytics got into the finals of a startup competition organized by the European Institution and Innovation &Technology (EIT). The first three teams will be awarded 25, 20 and 15 thousand EUR to develop a prototype of their product. The finals will take place in Budapest, in November.

Helping to cure Parkinson Disease, diabetes, and Hepatitis

To start with, Clavicont is a tool supporting neurological and psychological diagnostics able to

detect Parkinson Disease accurately

even during its incubation period. This would be extremely important since, without early detection, the patient has no chance of getting treatments or lifestyle advice. Secondly, DiabTrend is an application that

Furthermore, HepC is aiming to struggle against viral infections like Hepatitis B and C. Finally, Spicy Analytics’ activities include

healthcare data collection,

data analysis and modeling based on complex data with sophisticated methodologies, market research, application development and clinical trials support services.

According to the organizer EIT Health, the four Hungarian teams are competing with 21 additional European startups. The ‘Innostars’ Awards program is suitable for start-ups, spin-offs, early-stage companies and SMEs that already have a prototype or a minimum viable product (MVP) on the field of healthcare and information technology.
