Armi health tech hub program for bilateral health security - armi has been working to advance u.s-israeli health technology and health security under the IBX bioeconomy expansion program during the current fiscal year. As a result of that project, armi has established an advisory panel of key opinion leaders, conducted an almost 100-person road mapping effort, surveyed and/or interviewed more than 70 start-up companies, and is hosting a BI-lateral conference to discuss ways to improve u.s-israeli health technology and health security. Armi is proposing the following to further advance health security: 1) create a health tech hub to identify start-UPS, conduct technology "health" assessments, conduct "boot camp" seminars on quality and regulatory requirements, and match start-UPS and technologies of merit with advisors to better prepare and ensure success; 2) leverage the advisory panel and government connections that have been created to identify key health care problems/deficiencies and provide them to creative start-UPS looking for a challenge; to identify opportunities to improve quality, regulatory, and reimbursement policies; and to identify opportunities to improve health data architectures, data security, and data technologies/accessibility between the U.S. And israel; and 3) provide business, intellectual property, reimbursement, and funding expertise through the health tech hub.
