Life Sciences Baltics — Startup Pitch Battle 2025
The Startup Pitch Battle is the pitching strand of Life Sciences Baltics, the region's life sciences conference.
It is open to life sciences startups at pre-seed, seed or Series A. No country restriction is published, though the call is aimed at the Baltic region.
Twenty startups are selected, ten pitching on each day of the conference in front of investors, industry experts and decision-makers. The battle puts winners in front of LitBAN, HealthSeed Venture Studio, imago venture studio and BSV Ventures for investment, and offers a one-week intensive programme in Akron, Ohio meeting universities and venture capitalists, plus fast-track access to LitBAN's monthly pitch event, mentorship, acceleration support and advisory. No cash prize is published. The organisers take no equity; the named funds and venture studios invest on their own terms. The last call closed on 1 September 2025 ahead of the September 2025 conference in Vilnius; Life Sciences Baltics is biennial and returns to Kaunas on 27-28 April 2027 with a startup pitch challenge again on the programme, though no deadline for that edition has been published.
