What is Trampoline?
RADIUS’ Health Promotion Lab Trampoline program is an eight-session business model validation program for very early-stage ventures (startups and nonprofits) working to address health inequities in their communities, with a focus on chronic disease prevention. Through Trampoline’s capacity-building sessions, we test your business model for alignment in critical areas, identify gaps, and give you the confidence you need to move forward.
