40 Healthcare Technology Startups and Companies on the Forefront of Modern Medicine

In the fall of 2018, corporate finance advisory firm Hampleton published a report titled, "The healthtech sector is currently one of the most dynamic in technology M&A." As a summary of the report notes, "aging populations, increasing patient demands and the rise of lifestyle diseases, coupled with pressure on the costs for delivering care are forcing healthcare providers to innovate to improve the quality of their services and lower their prices." Those innovations are made possible by technologies that range from blockchain and artificial intelligence to big data analysis and advanced sensors. IoT connectivity plays a key role, too. And data is central, but not on its own.
