SPARK Zürich

SPARK Zurich is a mentoring network for researchers with ideas for new therapeutics, devices or diagnostics. SPARK Zurich is based on the SPARK program developed at Stanford University, which has achieved a translational success rate of more than 50% and has been replicated at academic institutions around the globe.
‍
SPARK is designed to de-risk projects with high potential impact, addressing critical unmet medical needs for any medical indication. Our aim is to accelerate the translation of academic inventions into breakthrough products for patients, regardless of modality or regulatory path.

Mentoring is provided by external advisors and the Translational Medicine Accelerator.
