Why Startups Get Stuck Before First-in-Human and How to Fix It

Roundtable 1
September 18, 2026 | 02:50 PM (EDT) - 03:35 PM (EDT)

Most MedTech failures happen before first-in-human, not because of bad technology, but because of the
wrong preclinical strategy. Startups often overspend on data that doesn’t reduce regulatory risk or move
them closer to clinical use. In this session, you’ll learn how to align preclinical, simulation, and regulatory
strategy to move faster with less waste.
