FilteredHQ are planning an Insurtech and Health IT global innovation scout in 2017. Attached is some evidence on why we believe tracking an engaging with accelerators should be part of your innovation strategy.

INNOVATION
IS JUST A
DROP IN THE
OCEAN
Australia only makes up 2% of the combined
GDP in the OECD.
Disruptive emerging technology and business
models are most likely to be incepted overseas.
It is estimated there are up to 2000 startup
accelerators and incubators globally.
Early knowledge of emerging technologies
offers strategic benefits including
partnerships, exclusive distributorships,
investment opportunities and risk analysis.

technical founder and one business founder
raise 30% more money, have 2.9x more user
growth and are 19% less likely to scale
prematurely than technical or business-heavy
founding teams.
Encourage pivots: Startups that pivot once or
twice raise 2.5x more money.
