What INNO3 does

INNO3 GmbH is a Leipzig-based, healthcare-focused services company founded around 2021-2023 that designs and operates events, networking formats, and consulting engagements for the German healthcare sector. Its core products are a portfolio of owned and co-organized event brands — notably TI-SUMMIT (co-organized with gematik; 800 in-person attendees in 2025, targeting 1,000+ in 2026), Health Insurance Hack+Con, LVL UP HEALTH, Diversity in Health Congress, E-Rezept SUMMIT, and TI-Messenger SUMMIT — alongside a 400 m² penthouse venue (InnoSpace) at Alte Messe Leipzig that serves as both event space and startup hub, and a 9-month digital health incubator program (InnoTrack).

The underlying technology stack is standard marketing and operations tooling rather than proprietary product technology: WordPress CMS, Brevo for email, pretix for ticketing, LinkedIn Insight Tag, Meta Pixel, WP Statistics, and video/map embeds. The company makes money through a mix of event ticket sales (e.g., 49 EUR standard / 299 EUR sponsor for LVL UP HEALTH), event sponsorship packages from health insurers and health-IT firms, paid consulting engagements in transformation, GTM strategy, and sustainability advisory, InnoSpace venue rental (from 650-850 EUR for 4 hours), and the InnoTrack incubator (partially supported by a Free State of Saxony LIfD grant). Customers are concentrated among German statutory health insurers (AOK PLUS, IKK classic, VIACTIV, IKK gesund plus, Healthy Hub consortium), regulatory stakeholders (gematik), health-IT companies, hospitals, and digital health startups. INNO3 operates as an integral part of the Health Innovators Group Leipzig ecosystem, alongside 4K Analytics, GreenBay Healthcare, GreenBay Software, WIG2, and InfAI.
