Infiheal's Healo Takes the Stage at STATION F Demo Day
Infiheal recently had its Demo Day at STATION F in Paris, as part of the IndiaAI Startups Global Acceleration Programme, and it was one of those experiences that stays with you long after the day ends.
About the Programme
The IndiaAI Startups Global Programme is a collaboration between IndiaAI, the HEC Paris Innovation and Entrepreneurship Institute, and STATION F, built with a shared ambition: to support Indian deep tech startups as they expand into Europe and build meaningful connections with investors, corporates, innovation leaders, and strategic partners in France.
Selected startups receive a four-month acceleration experience including a mandatory three-month onsite phase at STATION F in Paris, with access to mentorship from over 1,000 AI experts, connections with 500-plus investors, dedicated office space, business development sessions, and legal and regulatory workshops for EU market entry.
STATION F itself, spanning 538,000 square feet and founded by French billionaire Xavier Niel, is often described simply as a co-working space, but its footprint extends far beyond the physical. It is one of the most dynamic and consequential startup ecosystems in the world, and being selected as part of its IndiaAI cohort placed Infiheal among the brightest Indian AI companies making their move into Europe.
A Room That Didn't Feel Like a Competition
Infiheal's Founder and CEO, Srishti Srivastava, took to the stage to share Healo's story and the larger vision behind building Infiheal. What made the day stand out was not just the scale of ideas in the room, but the energy beneath them. Young minds, passionate founders, and ambitious startups all coming together to share their work with curiosity and encouragement rather than the competitive undercurrent that often accompanies pitch events.
There is something genuinely different about speaking to an audience that not only listens, but believes. Conversations with fellow founders, young innovators, and builders from across sectors and geographies were a reminder of how much there is still to learn from those building alongside you, not just from those who have already arrived.
A Meaningful Room to Be In
The presence of institutions including the Indian Embassy and OpenAI, alongside some of the most exciting emerging startups in the cohort, gave the day an added dimension. The Demo Day brought together investors, corporate leaders, innovation experts, and ecosystem builders exploring the next frontier of technology and cross-border collaboration between India and Europe, making it a genuinely high-stakes but warmly collegiate environment.
Being there as part of the IndiaAI Accelerator, in a room that included some of the biggest names in tech alongside founders well on their way to becoming them, reinforced something that Infiheal has felt throughout its time at STATION F: this is a campus that has a particular way of leaving you inspired, again and again, regardless of how many times you walk through its doors.
For a company building at the intersection of responsible AI and mental healthcare, being part of a cohort this strong, on a platform this visible, and in a city that sits at the centre of Europe's AI conversation, is exactly the kind of chapter the Infiheal story needed next.
