During our pitch, we presented a live demo of the MedAscendplatform to the judging panel. The response was extraordinary, the panel described it as “the best live demo they had ever seen.”

This recognition came even before the launch of our pilot at the University of Dundee, underlining the strength of our vision and technology from the very beginning.

Winning Scottish EDGE provides not only crucial funding but also access to mentorship and a powerful network that will support our next phase of growth.

This award marks a key milestone in MedAscend’s journey and reinforces our mission to make high-quality, scalable clinical training accessible to healthcare students everywhere.

We are deeply grateful to Scottish EDGE for their belief in our vision and excited for what comes next.
