Canada’s Global Innovation Cluster for digital technologies (DIGITAL) is investing $10.5 million across four projects from Canadian start-ups working on integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into healthcare.

DIGITAL contributed $1.5 million to Toronto’s Gotcare, which connects patients with in-home and virtual care based on proximity, specialization, language, and cultural understanding. DIGITAL’s largest contribution is going to Swift Medical’s $9-million wound treatment project, half of which is supported by the innovation cluster’s funding. The Toronto-based firm is looking to drive the adoption, evaluation, and commercialization of its AI-powered wound assessment, decision support, and predictive care technologies.

Congratulations to all the recipients!
