We embraced a cohort approach
At The VC HealthTech Hub, our approach is centred on creating a vibrant, personalized, and supportive learning environment. We've devised a unique and effective strategy that combines the best elements of cohort-based interaction.
Cohort-Based Approach
Cohort-Based
Approach
Our core strategy is built upon a cohort-based approach, where every cohort comprises 30 healthcare professionals. We've consciously chosen this manageable cohort size to ensure that no one gets lost in the crowd. It allows us to maintain an intimate and close-knit community where each member's journey matters.
Meaningful
Engagement
● Every interaction within the cohort is purposeful and meaningful.
We prioritize the quality of engagement over quantity.
● This focus ensures that the discussions, coaching sessions,
webinars, and peer interactions are rich and impactful.
● As a result, members get the best insights, advice, and mentorship
to navigate their career paths effectively.
Focused
Assistance
● The heart of our strategy is focused assistance.
● By maintaining small cohorts, we can dedicate ample time and
resources to each member, ensuring they feel seen, heard, and
supported.
● This tailored approach facilitates targeted advice, individualized
mentorship, and guidance that leads to effective and meaningful
outcomes.
Supportive
Network
● Our approach nurtures a strong sense of community and camaraderie
within each cohort.
● Members connect, collaborate, and learn from one another.
● This shared experience fosters an environment where they can grow
both professionally and personally

Respect is paramount in our community. We maintain a high standard of respectful and considerate communication. All members are expected to engage in conversations with courtesy and empathy. We strictly discourage any form of behaviour that includes derogatory language, religious biases, bullying, or insults. Our commitment to respectful communication creates a safe space for everyone to express their thoughts and ideas.
Promotion Restrictions
Promotion
Restrictions
To preserve the integrity of our community and ensure that it remains a valuable resource, we kindly request that members refrain from promoting any services, products, or self-interest. This approach helps us prioritize meaningful knowledge-sharing and professional growth over commercial interests. Our community's strength lies in its dedication to professional and personal development.
Vetted Resources

Resources
To guarantee that our shared resources meet these standards, every contribution from our members will undergo a rigorous vetting process.

This commitment to vetted resources empowers our members to access information they can trust.
