About Us

The power of innovation in healthcare is real. All across the globe, the need and demand for big ideas, creative solutions and pioneering products continue to rise. Whether it’s to improve quality and efficiency of care, advance diagnostics and treatment or enhance the patient and provider experience, these innovative breakthroughs are revolutionizing the possibilities for solving some of the most urgent health challenges around the world.

SoCap Accelerate was created to bring the next leaders in health innovation to the forefront. Unlike the traditional funding model, we provide social capital— potential customers, advocates & mentors, product development and testing, potential investors, non-traditional funding opportunities, legal and accounting assistance and marketing support —to help propel the growth and success of your company.

In close partnership with St. Elizabeth Healthcare, we can help you make connections with healthcare professionals in real scenarios to test, refine and optimize your innovation in real-time.

Our program is housed at NKU’s Health Innovation Center, a state-of-the-art facility that includes advanced technology and real-world learning spaces designed for simulating real-life healthcare situations. No other program immerses you in real, practical environments to pilot your product, and connects you to the right people and resources that can help you transform your innovation into a solution for some of the most pressing health problems in communities here and around the world.

Let’s win together.
