About the Lecture
The presentation is a perspective on how Oviva scaled to one of the most successful digital health startups in Europe. Over 9 years, the startup grew from 0 to 400’000 patients and 700 employees across Germany, the UK, France, and Switzerland, raising over $120m in funding from top-tier VCs. We will cover a wide range of topics, e.g., product, clinical, reimbursement, sales and funding, and most of all how to bring that together to a functioning whole.
