Ever wondered what the journey of a startup looks like after joining our programs? How they grow, and how Rubik Garage & Rubik Scale shape their growth? Take Apollo AI Technologies, for example: last year they graduated from Rubik Garage, and now they’re part of Rubik Scale – Western Markets Edition, preparing to pitch at Demo Day in London on September 23.
Progress During the Rubik Garage Accelerator in 2024
Out of 100+ applications, Apollo AI Technologies was chosen alongside 12 other startups for the 7th cohort of the international Rubik Garage accelerator – where they earned the “Best Startup” award. Following this, Apollo was invited to join Ready to Raise, an exclusive program tailored for the top startups from Rubik Hub’s cohorts, providing direct access to investors. Their journey continued with another milestone: being selected for the global Microsoft for Startups Founders Hub.
During the program, Mihaela Onofrei, CEO of Apollo AI Technologies, showed great dedication by actively joining the sessions. We saw her grow throughout the program, improving their pitch, strategy, and gaining valuable support for the startup’s journey.
Progress During the Rubik Scale – Western Markets Edition
At the launch of Rubik Scale – Western Markets Edition 2025, we were excited to start the journey, also with Apollo AI Technologies, together with 5 seed startups from Bulgaria, Romania, and Moldova. Apollo AI entered the program with strong goals already set for the year – from preparing a new platform to expanding into new countries. This time, alongside Mihaela Onofrei, CEO of Apollo, we also welcomed Vlad Trandafir, the second co-founder, to join the experience.
Current Status
Apollo AI Technologies has officially launched ApolloMed.ro – a digital health platform that, for the first time, addresses the needs of both healthcare professionals and general users. Available on web, Android, and iOS, ApolloMed ensures fast, safe, and reliable access to validated medical information.
How does ApolloMed work? The platform is built on two complementary levels:
ApolloMed PRO – designed for doctors and pharmacists, it provides:
- A medical terminology–optimized search engine with instant access to all official medicine summaries (RCPs), always updated.
- An advanced drug interaction checker covering 1.7M+ combinations, helping reduce prescription errors.
- Virtual assistants specialized in different pathologies to support complex clinical decisions.
- Integrated clinical calculators and ICD-10 codes, all in one intuitive interface.
For general users, ApolloMed offers:
- Easy-to-use tools to organize personal medical information.
- Clear explanations of prescribed treatments.
- Access to validated resources, explained in an accessible way.
This makes ApolloMed a trusted digital companion, available anytime, anywhere.
The launch of ApolloMed comes during a year of accelerated growth for the company and strengthens partnerships with global pharmaceutical leaders, including Novo Nordisk, Boehringer Ingelheim, and Pfizer. Supported by Digital Innovation Zone, a European hub for digital innovation, this milestone highlights the international potential of Apollo’s solutions.
Already available on their website, as well as Android and iOS, the platform aims to become an indispensable tool for medical practice and a valuable support for users seeking greater clarity and safety in managing their health.
