SotonMedEntrepreneurs
Soton MedEntrepreneurs is the go-to society for medical students keen to master the business of medicine—from private practice setup and med-tech ventures to AI in healthcare and investment strategies. While our focus is on equipping future doctors with the financial know-how and entrepreneurial mindset to innovate in medicine, we welcome anyone from healthcare or beyond—business, engineering, computer science and more. Join us for hands-on workshops, idea-development sessions, pitch nights and candid guest talks, and turn your business ideas into real-world impact.
Welcome to Soton MedEntrepreneurs! We are the University of Southampton’s premier student society bridging the gap between healthcare, business, engineering, and technology.
Whether you are looking to launch the next breakthrough healthtech startup, discover alternative medical careers, or simply master your personal finances and build new income streams as a student, this is the community for you.
What We Do
We host events every two weeks designed to give you practical skills, real-world insights, and direct networking opportunities with leading clinical founders, venture capitalists, and industry experts.
- Personal Finance & Side Income: Learn the essentials of smart money management, NHS pensions, personal investing, and leveraging your skills for side hustles or clinical consulting.
- Hands-On Workshops: Master problem identification, value proposition design, low-code product development, and high-impact pitching.
- Flagship Competitions: Participate in fast-paced taster challenges and our full 2-Day Healthcare Hackathon to build real clinical ventures with interdisciplinary teams.
- Guest Panels & Keynotes: Connect with pioneer healthtech founders, NHS innovators, and alumni who have successfully commercialised medical ideas.
Who Can Join?
Everyone! You do not need any prior background in business, coding, or medicine to get involved.
Our strength lies in our diversity. We actively bring together students across:
- Medicine & Healthcare Sciences
- Business, Economics & Law
- Engineering & Computer Science
- Biological & Life Sciences
If you are curious about healthcare innovation, want to build high-value skills, or just want to learn how to manage your money better, come along to our next event.
