 PharmStars Accelerator Spring 2025 Startup Graduates PharmStars, the pharma-focused accelerator for digital health startups, is delighted to announce that 12 startups graduated from its Spring 2025 program focusing on “Digital Innovations in Rare Disease.” The graduating startups completed PharmaU, PharmStars’ 10-week educational and mentoring program. PharmaU culminated recently with a Showcase Event in Boston that brought together participating startups and PharmStars’ innovation-minded pharma members. PharmStars is dedicated to bridging the "pharma-startup gap." The accelerator's mission is to help biopharma firms and digital health startups overcome barriers to partnership due to differences in size, speed, processes, and culture, thereby accelerating the adoption of digital innovations to improve patient outcomes. PharmaU prepares participating startups to effectively engage with pharma companies as clients and partners. The 12 startups were selected in March through a highly competitive application process that attracted applicants from 10 countries. The startups offer unique digital health innovations for rare disease, including diagnostics and biomarkers for patient identification and disease monitoring, tools to improve the execution of rare disease clinical trials, and patient research and advocacy group solutions. The graduating startups were thrilled with their PharmaU education. Jan-Willem Hoste, CEO of Meep and a Spring 2025 PharmStars graduate said, “After putting into practice the mentoring and education we received from PharmStars, we noticed the difference in how our value proposition was received during our sales discussions — we could get to the essence quicker as we spoke their language and understood pharma’s challenges in a deeper way. PharmaU got us there!” Anna Chukaeva, CEO of Intercellular, and another Spring 2025 graduate, concurred, “I'm really thankful for PharmStars. I got more than I ever expected. With most accelerators, the value is signaling: you got accepted into the accelerator and exposure at demo day, but that's it. PharmStars does way more. Through PharmaU, we learned a lot, worked closely with amazing mentors, and started meaningful conversations with potential customers.” At the Showcase Event, startups presented their solutions to PharmStars’ pharma members and then met with them individually. More than 70 private, one-on-one startup/pharma meetings took place over two days. The opportunity to connect with pharmaceutical stakeholders is incredibly impactful, explained Spring 2025 graduate, Amanda Clark, CEO of PulManage, “The fireside chats helped us understand the pharma members. When we got to see them at the Showcase, the groundwork had already been laid so we could start conversations, continue them in the one-on-one meetings, and build relationships.” The 12 digital health startups completing the Spring 2025 PharmStars accelerator are:
