We’re Partnering with MATTER!

We’ll be providing the MATTER community with access to Inflect Health’s expertise and network of frontline healthcare providers

Here’s a question for you — When’s the last time you did something that you felt really mattered?

Chances are if you’re in the healthcare industry you get that feeling all the time. Whether you’re on the frontlines providing care to the sick or operating behind the scenes, developing vaccines, medical devices or healthcare platforms, our work can be incredibly rewarding. Our ability and duty to save and improve lives is part of what drives us at Inflect Health to constantly search for new ways to support healthcare innovators. We’re willing to partner with just about anyone to innovate and deliver care for patients.

Which brings us to an announcement: We’re today celebrating our commitment to investing in causes that matter by partnering with, well, MATTER.

Founded in 2015, MATTER is a global healthcare incubator and corporate innovation accelerator that focuses on healthcare enterprises, many of them growing out of the U.S. Midwest startup community ecosystem. Comprised of more than 300 healthcare startups and 60 corporate partners, MATTER serves as a non-profit, neutral platform for open innovation wherein entrepreneurs and corporate innovators can collaborate to bring solutions to market.

MATTER supports healthcare startups at all stages of growth by creating access to learning and development opportunities, capital and customers, as well as a dynamic community. MATTER’s member companies have raised more than $1.7 billion to fuel their growth, and their solutions have benefitted more than 300 million people. MATTER also works closely with Fortune 500 companies, health systems and payers to help them achieve their innovation goals — helping them source and co-develop solutions, build innovation capacity and solve complex problems.

Through this new partnership with Inflect Health, MATTER will be able to provide its growing community with access to frontline providers in some of the nation’s nation’s highest performing acute and urgent care settings, as well as mentorship and investment opportunities. MATTER’s more than 60 corporate partners will also benefit from new ways to engage around innovation initiatives.

As expressed by MATTER CEO Steven Collens, “Inflect Health brings a unique offering that meets two key needs for MATTER’s startups: access to investors through an innovative group of clinicians, and the ability to test and validate new technologies in real-world settings. In the short time we’ve been working together, we have already identified several opportunities for collaboration, and we look forward to working together to advance more innovative solutions.”

We’re excited and proud to support the MATTER community and look forward to opportunities to invest in and engage with their many healthcare startups and corporate innovators.
