We are excited to announce the selection of the 10 finalists and participants for the first ever AWS Healthcare Accelerator. These ten companies were selected from 427 applications from 31 countries around the world by a panel from Amazon Web Services (AWS) and KidsX. The application criteria called for healthcare-focused startups that had a validated solution along with existing revenue, customers, and US-based operations.
For our inaugural AWS Healthcare Accelerator, we collaborated with KidsX, a digital health accelerator owned by Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles, to lead our delivery and operations of the program. We announced the program in June to help address the crucial need for healthcare innovation and collaborative solutions that can help healthcare customers respond to their challenges and rapidly innovate with data-driven and compliant solutions. The AWS Healthcare Accelerator is a new customer-focused program where selected startups receive technical, business, and go-to-market mentorship from experts from AWS and the KidsX network, up to $25,000 in AWS Promotional Credit, and collaboration opportunities with AWS healthcare customers, healthcare industry leaders, and members of AWS Partner Network (APN) looking for healthcare solutions.
