Plexaa Ltd reaches the finals of the American MedTech Innovator video competition

We are thrilled to announce that Plexaa Ltd, supported by Health Innovation North East and North Cumbria (HI NENC), has made it to the finals of the prestigious American MedTech Innovator video competition!

Please like and share the video far and wide across your networks! The more views the video gets will improve Plexaa’s chance of winning and receiving funding.

Plexaa’s journey with HI NENC began in September of last year, following Plexaa’s participation in Accelerating FemTech, delivered by the Health Innovation Network (HIN) South London and funded by Innovate UK. HI NENC’s Iain Taylor, served as the business coach for Plexaa throughout this accelerator. His guidance was crucial in shaping the company’s direction, particularly in areas such as product development, funding strategies, and regulatory compliance.

Based in Los Angeles, the American MedTech Innovator is the largest medical technology accelerator in the world, and Plexaa’s achievement in reaching the finals is a testament to their innovative work in the healthcare space.

Plexaa, under the leadership of Dr. Saahil Mehta, is on the cusp of launching Bloom43—a groundbreaking wearable medical device designed to support patients undergoing breast surgery. Bloom43 preconditions the skin to reduce wound healing complications, offering patients a better recovery experience.

Winning this competition could be a game-changer for Plexaa, providing crucial funding to bring Bloom43 to market sooner and ultimately to the patients who need it most.

The Plexaa team will be in Toronto this October for the final round of the MedTech Innovator program, where the results will be announced and we wish them all the best!
