As part of the inaugural MedHealth Summit, an event organized the the MedHealth Regional Innovation Cluster (https://medhealthsummit.org/), this past February 14 at TechTown Detroit, a group of about 250 MedHealth entrepreneurs and professionals gathered for a day of information sharing and networking.

At this exciting event (see https://medhealthsummit.org/agenda/), 5 startups finalists were competing for 3 cash prizes of $10,000, 5,000 and 2,500 respectively. NEF was happy to provide a team of coaches to help prepare the finalists for their 5-minute investor-style pitch.

And the winners were:

  1. Steri-Dev, and its CleanCase™ disposable smart-phone case for use in sterile medical environment.
  2. Melius Outcomes, A SAAS platform for clinical quality improvement in hospitals
  3. Find your Ditto, a mobile platform that connects individuals living with the same chronic illness locally for on-demand, in-person peer support.  

Melius Outcomes was also the NEF Showcase presenter at its February 16 meeting.
