Black Lives Matter.

And we are committed
to equity in Health Care.
The Discovery & Innovation Hub
was founded amidst
the backdrop of a global pandemic
as the discussions of race,
diversity and inclusion were reignited,
reexamined, and reinvigorated.
We strive to invest in health innovations
that adequately address
social determinants of health for
underrepresented populations.
The Discovery & Innovation Hub is a unique community-driven incubator
that tackles disparities resulting from social determinants of health-driven disparities.
Investing in the Community
We use technology and design thinking to address social determinants of health. Startup founders from a variety of industries and communities are supported with mentorship and capital.
Digital Health Equity
We accelerate the work of startups focused on enhancing healthcare technology in underserved communities. Our health technology partners are coached on best-fit practices and have access to well-rounded talent.
Creating Capacity
We focus on empowering leaders, early in their careers, to fine-tune their skills, expand their networks, and gain experience in the innovation ecosystem. Students are awarded fellowships to work and partner at health tech startups and VCs.
