Afreen Shariff: Start-ups are about persistence, grit and being comfortable with being uncomfortable

Afreen Shariff, Board Member Association of Cancer Care Centre, shared a post by CancerX on LinkedIn, adding:

“We at Citrus Oncology are absolutely thrilled to be a selected for the 2025 CancerX Accelerator among 14 other disruptive start-ups globally.

A huge thank you to our team and oncology practice partners working tirelessly on “start-up pace” behind the scenes to make everyday at Citrus = a step forward in changing the world of cancer care for the better.

Start-ups are about persistence, grit, having the courage to be disruptive and being comfortable with being uncomfortable. Congratulations to all the winners.”

Quoting CancerX‘s post:

“Announcing the 2025 CancerX Accelerator Cohort!

We are thrilled to introduce the 14 pioneering startups selected for the 2025 CancerX Accelerator, a national innovation platform designed to accelerate digital solutions in the fight against cancer.

These innovative companies will work closely with our Accelerator Champions (and others) to fast-track their solutions and create lasting impact.

We’re excited to see how these startups drive change, and we can’t wait to follow their journey as they work to transform the future of cancer care.
