Fast Track Health connects health-care providers with Canadian tech firms

Communitech’s Fast Track Health collaborative and its partners have identified 10 Canadian tech firms with scaleable innovations to help overcome the biggest hurdles facing today’s health-care systems.

These 10 companies will have the opportunity to develop integrative solutions to potentially pilot and partner with health-care groups such as: the Grand River Hospital Network, CAN Health Network, Ontario Bioscience Innovation Organization (OBIO), Integrated University Health and Social Services Network for West Central Montreal and their Connected Health Innovation Hub (OROT), and more.

“It’s been deeply inspiring to work alongside our partners and identify world-class, made-in-Canada solutions that have the potential to solve the biggest challenges facing health-care systems in Canada and beyond,” said Joel Semeniuk, Chief Strategy Officer at Communitech. “The potential impact of this collaborative work is a true testament to the power of Canada’s innovation community.”

The Fast Track Health collaborative issued a nationwide call in May for digital solutions focused on the areas of:

  • Developing Tools for Early Diagnosis and Treatment of Medical Conditions. 
  • Creating an Integrated Health Data System for Preventative Care. 
  • Comorbid Condition Management for Improved Health Outcomes.
  • Secure Access to Patient Data for Collaborative Care. 

After careful deliberation with partners, health-care professionals and seasoned business coaches working with Communitech, the collaborative has selected 10 companies to pitch their tech-enabled solutions to a live audience of potential customers, investors and collaborators.

These companies include: 

Each of these companies will receive dedicated coaching from Communitech’s seasoned growth coaches as well as introductions to health-care providers, organizations and potential customers in preparation for their pitch at the Future of Health Solutions Showcase virtual event taking place on Thursday, Sept. 14, 2023.
