Audio By Carbonatix

PLEASANTON, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug 6, 2025--

CharmHealth, a leader in healthcare technology solutions for providers, today announced it has extended the deadline to submit proposals for the 2025 Innovation Challenge. The last chance for entrepreneurs, innovators, students, nonprofits and philanthropists to enter the Innovation Challenge and secure their chance to compete for the $10,000 grand prize is Aug.15, 2025, at 12:00 p.m. PDT.

Now in its fifth year, the CharmHealth Innovation Challenge seeks new ideas that will drive impact across the healthcare ecosystem. Applicants simply submit an entry with a slide deck of their pitch (download the pitch deck template here ) and select their product/solution’s focus area. Applications will be accepted for Mobile Health Apps, Healthcare Accessibility, Tech-led Innovations, Population Health, and Agentic AI. There is no cost to apply.

“We are thrilled at the response to this year’s Innovation Challenge,” said Pramila Srinivasan, Ph.D., CEO of CharmHealth. “With the addition of the new Agentic AI category, we’ve seen a record number of submissions, as applicants recognize the profound power of AI to solve some of healthcare’s greatest challenges. We are also exceptionally pleased with the high level of engagement from participants in UC Berkeley’s Health Engine accelerator, which shares many of CharmHealth’s goals.”

All Innovation Challenge submissions will be evaluated by a panel of judges who will select 15 finalists. This group will then be invited to present their idea, product or service to investors, partners and more during a Pitch Day event at Charmalot 2025, CharmHealth’s annual user conference, taking place Sept.19-21 at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Berkeley, California. CharmHealth will sponsor accommodations and meals for the shortlisted candidates attending the event.

In addition to the chance to win cash prizes ($10,000 for first place, $5,000 for second place, and $2,500 for third place in each of the six categories), finalists and participants will gain exclusive access to list their products and services on CharmHealthHub. This unique opportunity allows startups to:

• Showcase their solutions to a vast network of healthcare providers and organizations.
• Seamlessly integrate with CharmHealth’s EHR and partner ecosystem for enhanced adoption.
• Gain visibility among investors, healthcare professionals, and decision-makers actively seeking innovative tools.
• Receive ongoing support and mentorship to refine and scale their offering.
