Aegis Ventures, a startup incubation studio, has recently secured the support of nine health systems, including Northwell Health, Novant Health, Ochsner Health, and Stanford Health Care, for its innovative model. This model involves co-developing, investing in, and deploying tech solutions aimed at addressing the most pressing quality, equity, and cost issues in healthcare.
The health systems have joined the venture company’s Digital Consortium to work together to develop startups that specifically target their unique needs. Aegis believes that health system leaders are uniquely positioned to identify opportunities for innovation in the industry. Under the leadership of John Noseworthy, M.D., the former CEO of Mayo Clinic, the consortium will collaborate with entrepreneurs and technologists to create a network of complementary companies designed by health systems for health systems.
Northwell Health and Aegis have already collaborated on building four companies over the past three years. These include companies focusing on areas such as patient engagement, women’s health, artificial intelligence-based diagnostics, workflow automation
