Five companies set to join BRIIA's Fall 2017 Accelerator Program
Summary
After months of preparation, meetings, phone calls and interviews, we are excited to announce the results of our selection process for the BRIIA 2017 Fall Accelerator Program. So without further delay, here are the participating companies: Acclivity addresses a perfect-storm opportunity – the ageing of the US population, rising health care costs and shifting attitudes about the final stages of life. By coalescing service providers, patients and insurers onto a common, smart platform, and applying machine learning, intelligent decisions can be made about palliative care options and service-delivery. Their machine learning-powered service can decipher 150 personality types from one’s affinity with just 10 images, improving the accuracy of recommendation engines for ecommerce, “friend finders”, human resources (talent life cycle management)and more. In the final selection process, Melissa also had some great help from three mentors from the local community – Eric Woo, Yuet Lee and Noha Elfiky – who each took a full day out of their busy schedules to hear presentations from our finalist candidates.
