We’re excited to announce our CEO Sury Agarwal has been selected by Tech:NYC for its inaugural season of Startup:NYC! The first cohort includes only nine emerging tech startups that are shaping the future of health and wellness tech. Startup:NYC will give selected founders access to Tech:NYC’s engaged network of leaders working to support a successful technology ecosystem, attract and retain top-tier talent, and celebrate New York and the companies that call it home. We're grateful for the opportunity and can’t wait to get started!
Today, we’re thrilled to launch our inaugural Startup:NYC season, focused on health & wellness tech. Meet New York’s next superstar founders: BePresent CareComply, Candor Health, Celeste, Hiveclass, KELLS, Lucid.Care Labs, TheraMotive, and Walking Doctors. Startup:NYC is a community dedicated to supporting New York’s trailblazing emerging and underrepresented founders with tailored resources and closer ties to funding networks, all powered by a vanguard of NYC’s next leading investors. “One reason New York has emerged as a premier global tech hub in recent years is the collaboration and support within and across the industries,” said Julie Samuels, President and CEO of Tech:NYC. “This is especially true in health and wellness tech — the proximity to New York’s world-leading medical care and research institutions has created an environment where groundbreaking ideas and new solutions to age-old problems are iterated upon every day. Connecting underrepresented founders in this field to the support they need to thrive can help us foster a more equitable tech industry, and a more equitable healthcare system as well.” Backing this momentum is the invaluable support of our partners: EY, Google, Gunderson Dettmer, Innovatemap, Justworks, M13, Rho, Thoropass, and WeWork.
