Google selects Daiser for its AI accelerator program
In a significant step forward for AI-driven health solutions, Daiser, a UK/US-based digital health company, has been chosen to participate in Google's Growth Academy: AI for Health startup accelerator program.
This three-month intensive program, designed to support healthcare and wellbeing startups that leverage artificial intelligence, offers tailored mentorship, growth skills, and international exposure to accelerate their development and impact in healthcare markets.
The Growth Academy focuses on startups like Daiser, aiming to equip them with tools and knowledge to improve healthcare outcomes through AI innovation. Participating startups receive mentorship, training, and resources to advance their AI technologies and expand their reach internationally.
Google's broader AI commitments in Africa are evident in this program. The tech giant has invested $37 million to foster AI research and innovation in sectors such as health, agriculture, and education across the continent. This includes financing platforms to back AI-driven startups and training initiatives aimed at improving AI literacy and capacity.
Daiser, co-founded by UK Professor Mike Trenell and US tech innovator Adam Wootton, is an AI-native platform that takes a people-first approach to healthcare. It offers a flexible 'Lego brick' system, providing healthcare providers and researchers with a powerful, easy-to-use digital toolkit.
The selection process for the program combed through Europe, the Middle East, and Africa for companies reshaping health and wellbeing with artificial intelligence. Daiser, with its exclusive, game-changing accelerator designed for promising health tech startups worldwide, was one of the three UK companies chosen for the program.
Mike Trenell, co-founder of Daiser, views the program as a launchpad to help redefine healthcare in the age of AI. Ongoing technical support from Google's expert teams will be provided to participants, even after the program ends, ensuring a continuous learning and growth experience.
The future of the UK's MedTech landscape following Labour's landslide general election victory is a topic of discussion in "Digital Health & AI Insights". Meanwhile, a £10m funding has been allocated for AI-powered robotic labs to accelerate deadly infection treatment.
With its selection for Google's Growth Academy: AI for Health, Daiser is poised to make a significant impact in the global health tech sector, leveraging AI to redefine healthcare and improve outcomes for patients worldwide. Google is excited to welcome Daiser to the program, recognizing their people-centric approach to AI in healthcare.
