Shatana Ellison, Community Program Manager at Decimal Health, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Yesterday we celebrated. Today we get back to work.
The CancerX 2026 Accelerator Graduation Showcase at The Pearl CLT was an incredible reminder of what can happen when innovators, health systems, pharma, investors, patient advocates, and industry leaders collaborate around a shared mission.
Thank you to everyone who showed up, supported the cohort, asked tough questions, offered guidance, and helped make the day a success. The startups may have graduated, but this isn’t the end of the journey. It’s the beginning.
I truly believe the real measure of success isn’t a pitch deck or a showcase. It’s whether or not these solutions make it into the hands of clinicians, researchers, caregivers, and patients who need them most.
I’m grateful for the amazing team and friends I get to work alongside. The work behind the scenes is never easy, but it’s a lot more fun when you’re surrounded by people who genuinely care about the work we do and the people they do it with.
Congratulations, Cohort 2026!”
