Our second edition of the annual HealthTech 250 🤩 This year, we crunched through the data behind more than 3,000 Digital Health early-stage ventures to spotlight 250 of the promising early-stage Digital Health around the globe. This annual HealthTech 250 of 2023 analysis is a result of our data-driven computation combined with our fabulous Galen Growth | Insights You Can Trust research team 😊 The evaluation algorithm is driven by a set of metrics focused on the venture’s alignment with the year’s top trending Digital Health topics, their investments, and partnership engagements with key stakeholders within the ecosystem. The HealthTech 250 exclusively showcases promising early-stage ventures, including those up to and including Series A funding, each incorporated within the past 5 years. 🌍 The world is full of wonderful health care solutions and I hope we will manage to showcase every one of them!
