Healthcare is responsible for a significant share of global emissions, but it also holds enormous potential to drive climate solutions. At “Healthcare Goes Green” we bring hospitals, corporates, startups, and policymakers together to explore how the sector can decarbonize through innovation and collaboration. Join us at Venture Café for an evening of reverse pitches from leading institutions, rapid‑fire startup demos from Green Health Accelerator, and the soft launch of the Berlin Green Health Startup Map. Whether you are a hospital, corporate, company, startup, investor, or policymaker, this evening is designed to help you network and find concrete next steps toward greener healthcare.
How can we cut emissions in healthcare while improving patient outcomes and system resilience? “Healthcare Goes Green” brings together Berlin’s sustainable health ecosystem to tackle this question in a practical, solution‑oriented way.
The evening kicks off with a panel featuring experts from major clinical and corporate institutions, setting the stage for where decarbonization is most urgent and where innovation is most needed. In a “Reverse Pitch” segment, organizations such as Charité, Bayer, and public stakeholders will present their concrete sustainability challenges directly to founders and innovators.
The core of the event is a series of rapid‑fire pitches from our startups of Green Health Accelerator, showcasing startups working on greener operations, supply chains, infrastructure, and care pathways. Afterwards, you can dive deeper at demo tables, meet potential partners, and discover new collaboration opportunities.
We will also celebrate the soft launch of the Berlin Green Health Startup Map, developed with SenWEB and Dealroom, highlighting the growing landscape of sustainable health ventures in the region. Whether you are a hospital, corporate, startup, investor, or policymaker, this evening is designed to help you find concrete next steps toward greener healthcare.
