FDT Health Impact Grant

Program · Access

50,000 euros that comes back.

A national recoverable grant for innovations that improve access to healthcare in Belgium, financed by Financière de Tubize and operated by Pulse Foundation.

What it is

Pay it forward, not back.

Belgium has strong talent and bold ideas, but too few reach a real-world pilot. The grant funds exactly that step: a time-bound test with real users and healthcare partners.

It is not a loan and not equity. When a company succeeds and reaches agreed triggers, it repays, and the money funds the next innovator. That is the whole design.

Amount
Up to 50,000 euros
Type
Recoverable. No loan, no equity
Pilot
Run within 6 to 9 months

What you get

Money, and the help to use it.

Mentorship and tailored support

One-to-one guidance from an experienced mentor, plus an expert session to measure and strengthen your health impact.

National visibility

Your project shown to investors, co-founders and experts across Belgium.

In their words

The people who lived it.

Pulse is collecting testimonials for this program. They belong here, and nothing is written in their place: a quote nobody said is worse than an empty space.
