Turn.io’s Chat for Health & AI Accelerator 2025 is tailor-made for organizations that are ready to move fast and scale responsibly. Over 24 weeks, your team is embedded in a fast-track growth environment—not just learning theory, but launching real-world pilot programs. Your participation signals commitment, momentum, and readiness—a powerful proposition when pitching funders or partners.
You’ll wield over $320K in value, from tech stack and API credits to licensing—enough to effectively scale a health chatbot to serve 10x your current users. And, if you’re among the top 3, you can walk away with up to $50K grant funding, boosting your operational runway further .
But tools are just part of the story. Participants receive hands-on mentorship from global leaders in AI, digital health, behavior change, business strategy, UX, and product design—experts like Pippa Yeats, Lieze Langford, Sofie Meyer, and more . Their guidance ensures your solution is not only well-built but culturally and technically viable.
Collaborative learning is core to the experience: a cohort of 10 diverse teams brings peer-learning, accountability, and co-development of case studies. It’s built for real-world acceleration—not isolated experimentation .
Why now? The global south needs scalable digital health support; chatbots can reach millions with verified health guidance. Turn.io, backed by OpenAI, J&J, WHO, and others, has test-run proof-of-concept models: chat reaches over 12M users, as shown by services like MomConnect and WHO COVID‑19 bot . That momentum needs structured scaling through innovations like this accelerator.
