SIGBEO at Lispolis Ignite 2026, Lispolis's programme for health startups

Lispolis Ignite is the acceleration programme of Lispolis, the Lisbon technology park. The 4th edition, in 2026, was dedicated to health (HealthTech), and SIGBEO was one of the participating startups.

How the programme worked

• Applications until 2 October 2026.

• Training from 14 to 23 October, with two in-person days (14 and 15 October: pitches, sponsor visits and speed mentoring) and online sessions.

• Demo Day on 29 October, presenting to professionals and other players in the sector.

• The initiative planned to select 10 to 15 companies for validation and growth support.

• Two prizes of €2,000 and one year of incubation.

• Sponsored by HealthTech Lisboa, CNS – Campus Neurológico and IPR – Instituto Português da Retina.

The outcome

SIGBEO was not among the award-winning projects. What remains is the training, the speed mentoring and the contact with other startups and with health professionals.

We thank Lispolis and the programme's sponsors for organising this edition.
