Another week goes by and here we are still stuck in quarantine, with no end in sight. As we go a little more stir crazy every day, MedStartr is trying to find startups that can help the people in need, whether that be the patients or the hard workers in hospitals who are risking getting the disease. To help everyone hear about them we are running a Virtual Pitch Competition in double time. Yes, we are known for creating amazing events and contests in weeks but now we are acting even faster and doing one THIS WEEK - this time on Thursday, April 2nd. Last week we had many great companies that came on stage and showed off their innovations. One of the top teams even formed a partnership with the great state of Texas. It's always great when our showcase helps a company get recognized. Can't Make it this week? Don't worry until COVID-19 has solutions it needs we are running a contest every week at the same time. But you won't want to miss one!
