It looks like Healthbox is raising a new fund, according to a Form D filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The accelerator is keeping schtum about the Healthbox Opportunity Fund I and declined a request for comment.
Still, its website shows that it is poised to bring its Healthbox Studio accelerators to Orlando, as part of a partnership with Guidewell Innovation Center, and Los Angeles later this year. Healthbox and Guidewell had previous accelerator classes in Miami, Tampa Bay and Jacksonville. Los Angeles is home to a few accelerators, including one between Techstars and Cedars-Sinai.
It runs 12 accelerators split between the U.S., Europe and Israel. Among the cities where it has a presence are Boston, Chicago, Florida, Nashville, Salt Lake City, London and Tel Aviv. It also has a foundry program to help hospitals identify commercialization opportunities from within, such as with Intermountain Healthcare System.
The last time Healthbox raised a fund it was 2014. It raised a $1.39 million to support its Salt Lake accelerator.
Healthbox tweaked its accelerator model and rebranded last year. We’ll keep you posted when we get more information about the new fund.
