ESCAPE-pain selected as semi-finalist for the Harvard Business School Acceleration challenge

The Forum on Health Care Innovation, a collaboration between Harvard Business School (HBS) and Harvard Medical School (HMS), announced today the semi-finalists in its Health Acceleration Challenge, which focuses on taking compelling, already-implemented health care solutions and helping them to grow and increase their impact through powerful networking and funding opportunities.

When announced in August, the finalists will share $150,000 in prize money, with an additional $50,000 going to the eventual winner, who will be named a year from now after the four finalists have pursued their dissemination plans. All of them will become the subject of an HBS case study. Since its launch in 2014, the Health Acceleration Challenge has received over 600 applications and attracted more than 25,000 online visitors from 29 countries.
