Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) is a research funding agency established in 2022 that supports transformative biomedical and health breakthroughs – ranging from the molecular to the societal – to provide health solutions for all.
ARPA-H has launched
ARPANET-H, a nationwide health innovation network anchored by three ARPA-H regional hubs. The Customer Experience hub - based in Dallas, TX – and the Investor Catalyst hub – based in Cambridge, MA – are each supported by a consortium with a nationwide network of spokes to bring together the nation’s voices, resources, and needs. Together, the hubs and spokes will rapidly create and transition life-changing health solutions to improve the lives of all Americans. Mass General Brigham is a spoke member of the
Investor Catalyst Hub and the
Customer Experience Hub.
ARPA-H offers a historic opportunity to bridge the translational gap but requires a distinct approach from traditional federal grant funding and the cultivation of a specialized mindset and skills. Mass General Brigham Innovation is hosting a series of
customized workshops on how to win competitive contracts and perform successfully if selected as an ARPA-H contract recipient.
