Digital Health Gains Traction with Funding Expected to Grow Rapidly in 2015

2014 was a huge year for health tech. Digital health funding in the first three quarters of 2014 has already surpassed $5 billion, close to double what was invested in all of 2013 ($2.8 billion).

With this kind of capital pouring into the market, the health tech space should be exciting to watch in the coming years. Venture capital companies like Larosa Group believe that the right funding and the right partnership strategy is vital for early seed stage companies to reach their full potential.

2015 will see an ever growing corporate interest in digital health, more global cross-pollination of ideas, as well as increasing health consumerism as people move into the driver's seat when it comes to their care.

There is a vast array of technology that companies, researchers and physicians are trying to apply to health care today to allow us to be more in-tune with our bodies. Inflation of health care costs, development of apps and devices, and a surging connectivity are all factors contributing to the onslaught of digital health trends. With so many different types of technology at our fingertips, which ones will lead the way for health care advancements in the next decade?

Here are some of the current and upcoming digital health technologies which are hot: Wearables, telemedicine, nanotechnology, 3D printing, visualization, artificial intelligence, genomics, cybersecurity, and traditional medical facilities that aid digital health.

Larosa Group are in advanced discussions with several seed stage companies that are developing these digital health care solutions, with the goal of taking them to the next level.

As digital health moves into the mainstream, expect to see some exciting new ways to personalize medicine and understand your body in the next few years.
