The graduating class of the inaugural CancerX Accelerator cohort by Moffitt Cancer Center

Corinne Leach, Acting Director of Digital Innovation Research and Services at Moffitt Cancer Center, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Congratulations to the graduating class of the inaugural CancerX Accelerator cohort and champions who have worked tirelessly over the last several months to make this brand new program a success in meaningful ways to the startups selected.

3 startups had pilots contracted during this first accelerator by Moffitt Cancer Center! Cancer Insights, Navya Care and a 3rd soon to be announced.

Creating this level of value in an accelerator requires:

• focus
• leadership alignment on prioritization of problems to be solved and resource allocations
• people who remind us always of not only a need to keep patients at the forefront of every product but HOW to do that in ways that actually provide value
• clinical operations staff who educate all on what problems are most pressing
• streamlined POC and pilot processes in health systems
• skilled matchmaking by internal clinical and research champions – the right people to the right startup opportunity

CancerX Accelerator by the numbers:

• 12 BIPOC founded companies
• 8 female/non-binary founded companies
• 12% program acceptance rate
• 8+ agreements signed
• 2+ investments underway
• 4+ months of structured curriculum
• 70+ mentor connections facilitated

Stay in the loop for the 2025 Cohort!”
