  • Office hours with our team of healthcare experts, former founders, and leading technologists
  • Templates, playbooks, and internally developed AI research tools that leverage our 7+ years of experience backing founders
  • Select introductions to Redesign's advisors and partners for real-world insights

Who It's For

Early-career, AI-native builders.

Redesign Spark is designed for the brightest minds who see how AI can unlock solutions to healthcare's toughest problems, and who are ready to turn that insight into impact.

A good fit if you are:
A builder with fewer than five years of work experience in tech
AI-obsessed and eager to build fast
Passionate about improving the most important part of people's lives
Two ways to participate
