Syosset, New York, 1st Sept 2026 – NextGen Invent, a Straive Company, an AI enablement and technology services company focused on delivering transformative outcomes through AI Strategy, AI Enablement, Digital Transformation, and Technology Transformation, has joined the American Heart Association® Center for Health Technology & Innovation’s Innovators’ Network. The Center is focused on building and fostering health technology relationships to develop innovative and scalable solutions.
The Innovators’ Network is a consortium connecting entrepreneurs, providers, researchers, and payers to advance cardiovascular and brain health innovation. Innovators’ Network members also have the opportunity to access the Association’s digital evidence-based scientific guidelines and clinical recommendations as they develop digital healthcare technologies. Members collaborate with the Center in different ways, including building models for clinical outcome studies, which lowers the significant cost of developing those studies independently, helping connect the science to technology, and providing evidence that a digital platform improves healthcare outcomes – a key concern for providers and payers.
“The Center for Health Technology & Innovation is dedicated to fostering the rapid, efficient and impactful development of healthcare technology,” said Robert A. Harrington, M.D., FAHA, volunteer past president of the American Heart Association (2019-2020), chair of the American Heart Association’s Health Tech Advisory Group for the Center, the Stephen and Suzanne Weiss Dean of Weill Cornell Medicine and provost for medical affairs of Cornell University. “By joining the Innovators’ Network, members can tap into the consortium to broaden and enhance their engagement in this transformative field.”
“We are excited to join the American Heart Association’s® Innovators’ Network, as it provides opportunities to collaborate with others innovating in the health technology space,” said Deepak Mittal, CEO of NextGen Invent, a Straive Company. “As an AI-first organization with deep healthcare and life sciences experience along with expertise in AI strategy, scalable AI enablement, AI governance, and modern data platforms, backed by strong thought leadership, we value the opportunity for the advancement of evidence-based digital health innovation.”
