Proximie

Healthcare 

Proximie’s healthcare platform brings together telepresence, content management, and data insights to help hospitals, surgeons, and medical device companies improve patient outcomes and drive productivity. With Proximie, expertise can be shared from anywhere using any device, and data from procedures can be securely captured, managed, and analysed at scale.

Following their Series C investment in 2022, in April this year, they launched PxLens – smart glasses with a 4K-camera to digitise operating and diagnostic rooms. This PxLens is a lightweight, wearable ‘smart glasses’ device – equipped with a 4K camera and embedded software. 

The head-mounted device allows surgeons to share a ‘first-person’ perspective of open surgeries and minimally invasive procedures. The device’s integration into Proximie’s cloud-based platform for telepresence, content, and insights from the OR makes the device unique in the market.

The company says that the first-person perspective allows participants observing remotely to have a far clearer picture of the surgery – providing opportunities to advise where necessary and/or learn from cutting-edge surgical techniques.

Ably

Software development 

Ably provides a suite of APIs to build, extend, and deliver powerful digital experiences in realtime for more than 250 million devices across 80 countries each month. Organizations like HubSpot and Verizon, depend on Ably’s platform to offload the growing complexity of business-critical realtime data synchronization at global scale.

Our everyday digital experiences are in the midst of a realtime revolution. Whether attending an event in a virtual venue, receiving realtime financial information, or monitoring live car performance data – consumers simply expect realtime digital experiences as standard. As a result, synchronized data in realtime is business critical for many organizations. But building homegrown realtime synchronization capabilities is complex and costly. Ably simplifies this.
