MedTech Innovator, the largest accelerator of medical technology companies in the world, in partnership with Asia Pacific Medical Technology Association (APACMed), the first and only regional association to provide a unified voice for the medical technology industry, has announced the 20 companies selected to participate in the organization’s third annual Asia Pacific Accelerator program.

MedTech Innovator Asia Pacific offers best-in-class start-ups with opportunities to work with investors, business leaders and allied service professionals in the medtech industry to help drive commercialization of life-changing technologies throughout the region. The 2022 cohort companies will also compete for up to US$300,000 in cash prizes and awards.

“This year’s selected cohorts for our Asia Pacific Accelerator program represent some of the region’s most promising entrepreneurs looking to solve significant real-world problems in healthcare,” said Paul Grand, CEO of MedTech Innovator. “Together with our sponsors, we look forward to helping them bring their innovations to patients in need.”
