Herada participated in Pittsburgh Techstars Startup Weekend 2025, where we were honored to win second place.
More than winning itself, the event was extremely valuable for the conversations it created. We met an incredible group of builders, operators, and mentors who challenged our assumptions, sharpened our thinking, and pushed us to articulate the real-world impact of what we’re building.
Startup Weekend compressed weeks of learning into a few days: rapid validation, clear storytelling, and honest feedback from people who understand how hard early-stage work actually is. We left with stronger conviction in the problem we’re tackling and a clearer sense of how Herada fits into today’s healthcare ecosystem.
We’re grateful to the organizers, judges, and fellow teams for creating an environment that prioritized solving real problems over hype.
