Oh hey, Applikate Technologies Inc, CivaTech Oncology, Inc., and Magnetic Insight, Inc! 👋 Did you know these companies are part of the 2024-2025 NCI SBIR Investor Initiatives Showcase cohort? Find them at the #MedTechConference this week 🎉

The #MarylandMedTech Summit started off hot yesterday, with an expert panel discussing some trends in MedTech. Highlights from the informative conversation between George Davis, Kyparissia (Kyp) Sirinakis, Robert Storey, Youseph Yazdi, Henry Brem, M.D. Private capital is more risk-tolerant and better for innovation than Public funding in the long run, but it might be a tough fundraising environment in Private markets for the next 12 months. 😬 There's excitement about the potential for integrating medical devices and biology for applications like continuously monitoring the efficacy of drugs, but we have to remain focused on improving access to healthcare by developing devices that deliver real medical value at reasonable prices. Sorry, lasers... As an ecosystem, we also want to retain the amazing local technical, medical, and entrepreneurship talent in the region by increasing support and mentorship resources for startups through incubators, accelerators, and access to capital. Thanks to Stefanie Trop Ph.D., William Bentley, and Martha Wang, Ph.D. for organizing the Summit!

I am super happy to report that PreTeL has been selected to present at the Reinventing Early Stage Investing (RESI) Boston Innovator’s Pitch Challenge at the upcoming conference on September 25th.    PreTeL is an early-stage AI driven Femtech startup.  CEO Marc Finch will be presenting in the Digital Health and AI section of the conference.  https://lnkd.in/eHjVuJ4Q PreTeL has the potential to improve the lives of moms and their babies everywhere providing personalized information on labor status to help physicians predict the onset of  preterm labor and potentially help adjust Pitocin (oxytocin) once labor has started.  Current predictions of preterm labor are inadequate, lead to significant increases in infant morbidity and increase healthcare costs. Improved evaluation leads to better outcomes through the timely and appropriate treatment reduce preterm birth complications. In addition, improper dosage of Pitocin is involved in about 50% of all labor and delivery malpractice claims and can lead to very significant fetal distress and mortality. PreTeL is seeing great early results for preterm labor prediction out of the ongoing NIH funded clinical studies at Duke University and University of Rochester Medical Center.   PreTeL plans to begin commercialization in 2-3 years. For more information see https//:pretelhealth.com

Just came across the Healthcare predictions of Bessemer Venture Partners . I got some insights, like - The health-tech market is not quite concentrated and rather polarized; - Longevity medicine is a new focus, that should decrease the levels of stress, cardiovascular diseases, diabetis and cancer. Some of that has common with what I write about massage and stress here: https://lnkd.in/ex-zhM3x - Labor shortage and employee burnout continues; As physiotherapy is one of the pillars for roboSculptor, we continue to develop additional manipulators to be able to streamline the autonomous robotic healthtech and wellness.
