“Solving an unmet need that improves the lives of patients and healthcare professionals, while making a meaningful impact on the healthcare system, is what I prioritize when investing” – Mariano Barbero, CEO and Founder of Dinamiza

Throughout this interview, we explore why the healthcare sector has become a strategic vertical for innovation investment, and what startups need to successfully position themselves before investors, hospitals, and public institutions. Mariano offers a practical and in-depth perspective on the technical profile of health entrepreneurs, the most frequent mistakes in funding processes, and the key insights to understand how investment funds think and how decisions are made within the healthcare system.

We also delve into the evolution of the investment ecosystem in Spain, the criteria that influence the decision to back a startup, and the specific challenges posed by the healthcare sector. The conversation invites us to reflect on how to build proposals aligned with institutional realities, avoid bottlenecks in validation processes, and leverage the momentum of public initiatives such as the ONE Platform.

A must-read for anyone building in health, seeking investment, or looking to understand how to strategically connect innovation, talent, and the healthcare system.
