From the inaugural Operating in HealthTech dinner, hosted with Silicon Valley Bank in San Francisco, May 2026.

Who was in the room

~35 Founders from stealth to Series B shared the table with the operators at scaled healthtech firms, buyers at healthcare delivery organizations, and investors they are trying to reach.

Why sponsor

These are not receptions, happy hours, or networking events. They are curated, high-signal dinners built around one question founders are actually working through. The room is large, but every seat is intentional.

The right room

A large, curated room of founders, investors, and expert advisors, every seat chosen for fit.

Thoughtful association

Your firm sits alongside a serious, operator-led community, in a setting built for trust.

Real signal

You hear what founders and operators are working through now, before it reaches a pitch or an RFP.

How this connects to Operating in HealthTech

Operating in HealthTech is the community and content platform connected to Vahana Labs. It focuses on practical conversations about building healthcare products, systems, and companies that buyers trust, adopt, and expand.

The dinners bring that work into the room: a large but focused group, one theme, and a conversation senior enough to be worth the evening. Sponsoring places your firm inside it as a partner, with first option on the briefings, labs, and roundtables that follow.
