 | 11:00 AM | We are a medtech company providing image analysis, modeling, and visualization solutions for personalized medical applications. We are currently focused on surgical planning and outcome optimization for individuals with aggressive gliomas through prediction of tumor progression, which will allow for patient-specific targeting of treatment. |
 | 11:15 AM | Stenella uses state-of-the-art computer vision and deep learning techniques to proactively capture, categorize and escalate potential quality issues before product leaves the manufacturing line. Our automated computer vision solution accurately detects medical device manufacturing defects in real-time to reduce rework, scrap and costly product recalls. |
 | 11:30 AM | Sleep Apnea affects tens of millions in the US alone. Aside from increased risk of high blood pressure along with coronary and pulmonary diseases, it leads to chronic fatigue and productivity losses. Obstructive sleep apnea typically occurs when the tongue falls back from its normal sleeping position against the teeth and obstructs the airway. Our custom fitted mouthguard, with integrated sensors determines the tongue position during sleep and uses neurostimulation to make the user move the tongue back into position, preventing an apnea episode. |
 | 11:45 AM | Xaia delivers AI-driven automation for behavioral health providers, streamlining patient intake, clinical documentation, and ongoing patient support between appointments. Our platform boosts clinician efficiency, reduces administrative burdens, and helps patients stay engaged, improving both clinical and financial outcomes while making mental health care more efficient, effective, and accessible. |
 | 12:00PM | Pretika MedTech delivers Embedded Diagnostic Connected Wound Care technology - a non-invasive, multispectral, hyperspectral and digital optics imaging device embedded within wound dressings with wireless and BLE enabled connectivity directly into the EHR patient record system for clinicians to monitor the healing process of acute and chronic wounds remotely without having to remove the surgical dressings, bandages, wraps or casts. If wound healing complications go undetected, they can lead to serious infections, delayed healing, amputations and even death in severe cases. Allows clinicians to capture complications before they become serious. Embedded Connected Diagnostic Wound Care Technology allows Clinicians to see Imaging and Sensor analytics of the wound for early detection of problems. |

 | 1:30 PM | AMSTAD provides a personalized solution for tobacco use disorder (TUD) through a multi-chamber system that controls nicotine dosages based on real-time user data. Integrated with IoT, it addresses both physical and behavioral aspects to reduce dependency. |
 | 1:45 PM | There are as many as 384M patients with uncontrolled (diagnosed, treated but not controlled) hypertension (HTN) and 109M patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes (T2D), world-wide. Abnormally high sympathetic activities between brain, kidney and liver are the main culprits of exacerbating HTN and T2D. ZeptoMed is developing an endovascular catheter system to lower the sympathetic overactivity most safely and efficiently to treat both uncontrolled HTN and T2D. |
 | 2:00 PM | Aurora by Persperity Health is a non-invasive patch that continuously tracks fertility hormones in near real time, bridging the gap between occasional blood tests and the daily fluctuations critical to IVF success. Our aptamer-based sweat sensor lets clinicians optimize medication promptly, potentially boosting success rates and lowering costs for patients. By transforming guesswork into data-driven decisions, Aurora brings unprecedented accuracy and convenience to the fertility journey. |
 | 2:15 PM | Cellecho Biotech leverages micro- and nanotechnologies to bring next-generation precision cell therapy to patients’ bedside. To achieve this, the company has developed a microfluidic technology that harnesses sound waves to perform gene editing on billions of cells with the precision, scale, and speed needed to unlock the full potential of cell therapy. |
COFFEE BREAK | 2:30PM | |
 | 2:45 PM | Conventional mental health care struggles with accessibility, scalability, and compliance. Leveraging our pioneering dry electrode EEG technology, Wearable Sensing offers a telehealth VR-powered brain training system, which rewires unhealthy brain patterns through engaging games. Its remote monitoring allows therapists to expand their patient reach without adding overhead, and provides patients with convenient, enjoyable, and effective non-pharmacological therapy. We're addressing a critical need in the $400 billion mental health market. |
 | 3:00 PM | SuperSenses has developed the first comprehensive at-home testing platform that detects early sensory changes across all five senses – the largest modifiable risk factor for cognitive decline. By measuring sensory health, we create a prevention window that precedes cognitive symptoms by years, when interventions can reduce risk by up to 50%. |
 | 3:15 PM | Neuromuscular Dynamics provides the leg dexterity device: a simple, safe and portable device to train, improve and track dynamic leg performance. By leveraging the power of dynamic instabilities to challenge your unique neuromuscular system, you can improve your game and maximize your training or recovery journeys. We connect the neuromechanics of your leg with the power of cloud analytics to personalize your training. |
