Business Challenge
Connecting medical devices to the internet with a custom cloud solution is challenging, time-consuming, and expensive. The data from medical devices is highly sensitive and must be closely guarded, and the technology that powers this service must comply with strict FDA and other international standards. One can see why designing a custom digital healthcare system can be prohibitively costly and time-intensive.

From access to great mentors, to technical experts, to new business opportunities, they have always been thoughtful, helpful, and generous. Our platform is built with the security of healthcare data in mind and it’s been great working with a partner that takes that responsibility as seriously as we do. They don’t just tell you that you’re on the same team, they show it.”
