We are pleased to announce that we will be taking part in the Innovate UK & TMC Innovation (TMCi) accelerator program alongside 15 other companies.
The program is a partnership between the Texas Medical Center and Innovate UK designed to help innovative companies grow and scale their US strategy and market plan through an extension of the TMC-United Kingdom Biobridge.
CEO Bruce Elliott will be taking part in the inaugural session, kicking off on 4th June at the Texas Medical Center campus. This will be followed by five months in the incubator working on a tailored program with TMC specialists to refine our strategic development plan. Elliott commented, “This comes at a great time for us as we continue to roll out our enterprise service in the US and as we actively seek out US partnerships and investors. I have no doubt we will learn a great deal both from the TMC team but also from the other participants.”
“The first cohort of startups in our accelerator program experienced TMC’s capabilities in developing and advancing solutions through cross-collaboration with top minds in clinical care, commercialization and innovation. We are excited to continue our partnership with Innovate UK and welcome this second cohort to continue our efforts advancing life sciences technologies across the globe,” said Devin Dunn, Head of the Accelerator for Health Tech at TMC.

Memory Lane Games deliver professionally-curated, inclusive reminiscence and speech and language games which make a difference to people living with dementia AND those that care for them. *In clinical trial, 92% of carers felt the app made them more relaxed and 58% of carers believed it helped the person with dementia communicate more. Our games are played across the world by clinicians, therapists and carers because they are frustration-free and specifically designed to stimulate conversation, reminiscence, to trigger positive memories and even help make new ones.
