ROCKHEALTH.ORG
INNOVATION FELLOWSHIP
The RockHealth.org Innovation Fellowship is an immersive cohort-based experience that supports and amplifies the work of visionary leaders who are centering lived experience in digital health innovation.
The Opportunity
Digital health innovations are uniquely positioned to transform how health needs are understood and addressed. However, existing digital health innovations have not equally satisfied the needs of every individual and community—particularly those that have been persistently overlooked and underserved.
To reach these critical populations, we believe there is a unique opportunity to learn from the work of digital health innovators who ground their solutions in the lived experiences of these communities.
We believe that these proximate leaders are well positioned to develop transformative companies that can effectively address the urgent needs of their communities while also expanding the promise of digital health for all.
Fellowship Criteria
The RockHealth.org Innovation Fellowship is a seven-month engagement designed to create opportunities for emerging digital health leaders to gain exposure to the digital health ecosystem, deepen their understanding of trends and opportunities across the industry, and engage with the Rock Health community.
