MedStartr is a New York City–based organization in the hospitals and health care sector focused on advancing medical innovation. It builds innovation communities, hosts events and conferences, runs crowd-based challenges, and operates MedStartr.com, a crowdfunding platform for health care ideas. The approach is to mobilize a broad crowd to move concepts from lab to bedside, addressing adoption, regulatory, and clinical-evidence hurdles. Its customers include medical innovators seeking to bring ideas to market, as well as institutions, corporations, and government bodies that participate in pilots, partnerships, or procurement of new technologies. MedStartr has expanded its scope beyond communities by establishing venture funds, with the first fund opened in 2017 and a second subsequently. In 2020 it launched MedStartr Direct, a professional sales organization that connects institutions, corporations, and government organizations to medical innovations. These activities reflect its role in the health care innovation ecosystem, combining community-building, alternative funding pathways, and direct access to potential adopters and partners. The organization operates with a small team based in New York City.
