**In light of the heightened uncertainty raised by the COVID-19 pandemic, IMAGINE IF! NYC local program and competition have been canceled until further notice.**

**STAY TUNED for future Innovation Forum New York events!**

For the first time in New York, IMAGINE IF! pre-accelerator pitch competition is now launching!

IMAGINE IF! seeks to identify disruptive ideas emerging from local ecosystems, and assist on the development of these ideas into businesses. This year, Innovation Forum New York chapter is organizing the local IMAGINE IF! pitch competition for the first time.

If you are a postdoc, faculty or an early-stage start-up and you have a scientific idea, discovery or technology with the potential to become an entrepreneurial success, don’t waste this opportunity and join us. IMAGINE IF! offers visibility, tailored mentoring to accelerate this idea towards a commercial reality and unlike other competitions, it is the truly global competition for healthcare and life-science ventures. Local winners will have the guaranteed opportunity to pitch in the global final at the annual conference in Barcelona, where they compete to win a non-dilutive cash prize.

Participation is FREE!
