Third annual GlobalSTL Health Innovation Summit in St. Louis chooses 16 innovative companies, mostly Israeli, to present to healthcare execs and VCs.
Ten Israeli companies were among 16 chosen from more than 750 international digital health companies vying for the chance to present at the GlobalSTL Health Innovation Summit in St. Louis, Missouri, on June 5.
This is the city’s third annual GlobalSTL Health Innovation Summit, aimed at bringing transformational international technologies to the region’s $240 billion healthcare industry. Israeli companies have dominated the list at the highly curated event.
