"The world has changed and with it the world health systems. Today we face significant challenges. Only by combining our powers can we overcome them. We did it once, and now we're off for the second round!

Using AI to monitor the development of cancer cells? A bracelet to monitor lung diseases? Deciphering echocardiography by innovative means? This may sound like the opening of a science fiction movie. No. These are start-ups that deal with the issues that concern each and every one of us. The future lies in digital health.

Yesterday we launched, for the second time, the #PlayBeyondBio program for #Digital#Health startups, backed by a combination of leading international partners: AstraZeneca, Accenture Israel, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and the Shaare Zedek Medical Center, Jerusalem, and Margalit Startup City.

This year, our focus is on companies that develop tools that know how to predict and diagnose the diseases that our health systems will face. We are excited to be a significant part of this extraordinary collaboration - which can save lives.

We would like to thank all our partners and all the companies that have applied to participate in the program.

Thank you and good luck to all!
