CLEVELAND, Oct. 1, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Plug and Play Cleveland, the global innovation platform matching health tech startups and corporate partners to disrupt the healthcare system and improve patient outcomes, has announced the results of Batch 2 Selection Day. Held at both Cleveland Clinic and University Hospitals, the two-day event brought together over 300 clinical champions to hear pitches from 20 exclusive startup companies in and around the health tech field.

Selection Day is part of Plug and Play Cleveland's 12-week Innovation Platform that occurs twice a year to identify a cohort of startups to be granted inside access to Cleveland's preeminent institutions. In partnership with Cleveland Clinic, University Hospitals and JumpStart Inc., Plug and Play Cleveland provides opportunities for startups to collaborate alongside business leaders and clinical champions. Many of these startups then leverage these connections to establish more formal agreements, including pilots, proofs of concept studies, and joint ventures to advance their business objectives. Plug and Play Cleveland may provide funding to companies that best align with their corporate partners' needs.

"Cleveland Clinic is a pioneer in health care and always looking to improve care for our patients. Through our relationship with Plug and Play Cleveland, we are able to find companies with unique expertise to help us utilize innovative ways to enhance patient care," said Sarah Stamp, General Manager, Operations and Administration at Cleveland Clinic Innovations.

Pete O'Neill, Executive Director, Cleveland Clinic Innovations agrees: "Cleveland Clinic has a global footprint. Plug and Play Cleveland is a really efficient way for us to have a global perspective into entrepreneurial communities. Through Plug and Play, we are able to get those companies in front of over 100 clinicians who would be the ones implementing any pilots."

"There is an incredible amount of value in bringing globally-focused startups to Cleveland with our partnership with Plug and Play Cleveland," said Brittan Berry, Senior Portfolio Manager at University Hospitals Ventures. "With this partnership we're able to leverage the strengths of entrepreneurs and innovative companies from around the world to ensure Cleveland is the best city it can be through innovation."

"I was most impressed by the diversity and sophistication of the pitches from this batch of startups. There were a lot of different needs in healthcare being met with these types of solutions. I'm eager to continue the conversation on how we can collaborate," confirmed Eric Beck, President of University Hospitals Ventures.

The Cleveland Clinic and University Hospitals reviewed ballots submitted by their clinical champions and the following 12 startups were selected:
