Healthtech & Software Companies — PCD CareHub
WHAT CHALLENGES DO YOU FACE?

Three conversations every healthtech founder recognizes.

Distribution

The product is ready. The commercial cycle with healthcare procurement remains a bottleneck. Tenders, framework agreements, procurement processes.

Integration complexity

Every customer wants to connect with a different EHR, EPD, or scheduling system. Engineering writes more connectors than features.

Scalability

Growing requires capital, people, and a governance structure suited to the next phase — areas that are often not your strongest suits.
WHAT THE ECOSYSTEM OFFERS

Four things you don't have to build alone.

  • Direct distribution

    Access to our healthcare clients. A shorter path to initial pilots, framework agreements, and scale.

  • Shared integration layer

    FHIR and HL7 connectors that we maintain together. Connect once, work everywhere.

  • Compliance framework

    Based on NEN 7510 principles and Wegiz evidence from the ecosystem. GDPR-by-design. You focus on your product.

  • Go-to-market support

    From demo scripts to tender management. We relieve the pressure on your commercial funnel.

FORMS OF COLLABORATION

Three ways to partner with PCD

No one-size-fits-all. The structure follows your team's ambition — not the other way around.

Technical integration

Your product operates independently but becomes connectable within the CareHub ecosystem. Light commercial arrangements, with full autonomy retained.

Strategic partnership

Joint roadmap, shared go-to-market, sometimes a minority investment. You grow alongside us without a fundamental shift in structure or ownership.

Buy-and-build

For founders who want to accelerate the next phase within a larger whole. Long-term vision, culture fit, and continuity come first — not quick exits.
WHAT STAYS YOURS?

Collaborating without losing your identity.

The most common question from founders is: what do I give up? Our starting point is that product identity and team are preserved — including in a buy-and-build process. The deeper the collaboration, the more explicitly we document this.

  • Product identityBrand name, positioning, and product DNA remain recognizable to your customers.
  • Team cultureYour team stays your team. No forced reorganizations or culture imports from day one.
  • Client relationshipsExisting client agreements, contracts, and service levels remain intact. Continuity first.
  • Roadmap inputYou remain the owner of the product direction. Ecosystem insights are input, not mandate.
  • Founder roleAgreements about your role post-collaboration are established upfront — not filled in after the fact.
  • IP & integrationIP position, data ownership, and integration scope are contractually anchored.
WHAT WE LOOK FOR

Not every route is a fit — and that is fine

  • Proven productIn active use by healthcare clients. We are not an accelerator.
  • Healthcare clientsAt least a handful of active clients in Dutch or European healthcare.
  • Team ready to scaleA core team that wants to pursue the next phase — with or without the founder.
  • Scaling ambitionA plan that reaches beyond one region or one segment.
HOW THE FIRST CONVERSATIONS UNFOLD

Three meetings to determine whether it's a fit

  1. Introduction

    A no-obligation conversation of one hour. You talk, we listen.

  2. Exploration

    A second conversation with your team and ours. Product, culture, ambition.

  3. Collaboration

    A tailored proposal — integration, partnership, or acquisition.

NO OBLIGATION

Shall we schedule a conversation?

We are happy to discuss confidential details in a personal conversation. No obligations, no cold pitch.
