Why Partner With Us?

  • Clinical Integration: Move beyond theoretical models by partnering directly with Lahey clinicians and ecosystem experts.

  • Evidence-Based Impact: Develop actionable implementation plans designed for immediate pilot opportunities within the Lahey environment.

  • Ecosystem Access: Connect with a network of startups, academic teams, and technical innovators at the forefront of human-centered AI and digital health.

     

Areas of Interest

While we welcome all transformative ideas, we are currently prioritizing projects that align with Lahey’s core clinical goals:

  • Patient Experience: Improving the human side of healthcare. We are looking for innovations that enhance communication, provide comfort, and empower patients to be active participants in their own care journey.

  • Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAIs): Utilizing advanced technology and data-driven insights to eliminate preventable infections. Our goal is to pilot smart monitoring, sterilization innovations, and predictive analytics that keep our environment safe.

  • Patient Safety: Building a "zero-harm" clinical environment. We prioritize tools that reduce medication errors, prevent falls, mitigate alarm fatigue, and support diagnostic accuracy through real-time decision support.

  • Care Progression & Transitions: Streamlining the patient journey from admission to discharge and beyond. We are seeking solutions that optimize bed management, improve discharge planning, and ensure seamless hand-offs between care teams and post-acute settings.
