For the past 4 years, Tim Walmsley, Founder & CEO of BenchOn, has been a powerhouse mentor at the LuminaX HealthTech Accelerator, helping startups navigate the brutal early stages of business.
From Australia’s first diabetes subscription service to AI-driven clinical tools, his expertise has shaped some of the country’s most exciting healthtech innovations.
Surprisingly, Tim doesn’t come from a healthcare industry background. Yet, he’s consistently ranked as one of LuminaX’s top mentors – thanks to his mastery of B2B sales, capital raising, and strategic partnerships. With a background as an ex-Army officer and a track record of digitising industries, he knows how to build sustainable and scalable businesses. Some of the LX startups he has coached have even described him as The Coach Who Doesn’t Take Prisoners – unless they’re slow to pivot. In which case, he might just hold them hostage in a strategy session.
Reflecting on his journey, Tim is excited for what’s next:
“Every year, I get to work with brilliant founders tackling massive challenges in healthcare. I know firsthand how tough the startup journey is, so being able to help them pivot and scale faster is incredibly rewarding.”
As LuminaX gears up for its next cohort, Tim remains committed to shaping the future of healthtech. We are excited to have him as a coach in residence again this year and we are excited to see the next transformation of startups under Tim’s guidance.
