65 Startups Named to MedTech Innovator 2024 Cohort

Now in its 12th year, the world’s largest medtech accelerator continues to identify the most promising medical device, diagnostic, and digital health startups developing innovations to improve patient care

MedTech Innovator, the world’s largest accelerator of medical technology companies, today announced its 2024 Accelerator Cohort. After a competitive selection process with a five percent acceptance rate, 65 companies were chosen to participate in MTI’s flagship four-month Accelerator program. The 2024 cohort of medical device, diagnostic, and digital health companies will now have unparalleled access and visibility to the world’s leading ecosystem of seasoned expertise of strategic manufacturers, investors, healthcare providers, payers, patients, and other industry stakeholders. At the culmination of the MTI accelerator program, cohort companies will compete for the vote of the audiences at the industry’s leading conferences for $800,000 in non-dilutive funding.

“Our accelerator has become the gold standard, thanks to our industry-leading track record of identifying and refining the most innovative medtech startups in the world. Since launching MedTech Innovator, our more than 600 graduates have received 310 FDA approvals and clearances and secured $8 billion in follow-on funding,” said Paul Grand, CEO and founder of MedTech Innovator. “Having evaluated thousands of applicants since November, I can tell you definitively that the 2024 MedTech Innovator Cohort represents the best emerging startups around the globe. We are excited to spend the next four months with our industry-leading corporate partners and industry experts, to help these entrepreneurs advance their medical device, diagnostic and digital health innovations to improve the lives of millions.”

Approximately 1,300 companies applied to participate in the 2024 Accelerator. MedTech Innovator, its corporate partners, and more than 400 industry reviewers selected 15% (192) of the applicants to advance to this year’s MedTech Innovator Road Tour of pitch events in Los Angeles, Washington, D.C. and Dublin, Ireland. Invited startups had the opportunity to meet and receive feedback from more than 300 SMEs in the MTI ecosystem. Based on evaluations at the pitch events and subsequent diligence, MTI’s strategic partners such as Asahi Intecc, BD, Dexcom, Edwards Lifesciences, Johnson & Johnson, NIPRO, Olympus, W. L. Gore & Associates, and Zimmer Biomet selected 65 companies to be in this year’s cohort. The 2024 Cohort represents 14 U.S. states and 16 countries.

As part of this year’s accelerator, five companies will participate in the MTI/ASPS Plastic Surgery Accelerator track held in partnership with the American Society for Plastic Surgeons (ASPS); five will participate in the Heart and Brain Health Accelerator in collaboration with the American Heart Association’s Center for Health Technology and Innovation (CHTI); and five companies will participate in the Military Medicine track in partnership with the Medical Technology Enterprise Consortium (MTEC).
