Why study Launching HealthTech Innovation?
From investment to innovation: the HealthTech revolution

Not long ago, digital health was the domain of niche consumer products like Jawbone and Fitbit. Now it’s a diverse ecosystem humming with smart analyses of patient data and reimaginings of critical systems of care. Investments are skyrocketing in corporate innovation and startups alike, as investors and healthcare companies anticipate serious advances in areas like data interoperability, mental health and personalized care.

HealthTech offers innovators the rare opportunity to build a business while saving lives and reducing social inequities. By embracing transformative new technologies, such as AI-enabled wearables and machine learning algorithms, HealthTech entrepreneurs are revolutionizing every aspect of the healthcare ecosystem and capturing a healthy slice of the growing global digital health market, projected to hit $504.4 billion by 2025.

At the top-ranked MIT School of Architecture and Planning, innovators learn from world-renowned HealthTech leaders and specialists. Under the direction of Dr. Rosalind Picard, MIT professor, inventor, author and entrepreneur, learners gain immediate expertize in the complex business, technology and regulatory healthcare landscape, where incisive knowledge, shrewd networking and sophisticated early-stage collaboration can make the difference in landing investments.

This Launching HealthTech Innovation course is for bold inventors and forward-facing, multi-modal thinkers, those who recognize the power of digital HealthTech products and services in the largely uncharted healthcare industry and strive to secure the investments that bring life-saving ideas to life. The course also presents an opportunity for entrepreneurs to pitch their HealthTech startups to industry leaders.
"AI and new technologies such as wearables and mobile devices are revolutionizing healthcare. This course will help you learn how to create a product, service or business that can bring better health into people's lives, helping shape the future we all want to see."

What Past Learners Say
"Before I completed the first two course modules I knew we had to change the way we were doing business at my company. The course was overall incredible and exceeded my expectations. We have since aligned our vision, defined who our customers are and determined that our prototype will be in the hands of our customers before we do anything further in development. And that is just the beginning. I am now a leader in digital healthcare innovation"
Kurt Garrett
Founder, Lumagenics, Allomed Sciences
"The course has provided a better view of the health tech industry regarding medical devices. This course influenced my creation of a mobile-first website that will become an FDA-regulated business called STRK."
