Season 07 of Startup Pass-port by Frontwalker continues with Episode 31 – Sharon Mullen, Senior Account Manager at Rotterdam Square. Sharon Mullen discusses Rotterdam Square's role in positioning Rotterdam as a location for health and tech and in connecting the healthcare ecosystem with businesses and entrepreneurs. She explains how the organisation works with scientists, researchers, and clinicians to understand their expertise and connect them with businesses and entrepreneurs, helping to validate science and research more quickly and find new solutions that can impact the way healthcare is delivered in the future.
