Amazon Web Services is launching a four-week accelerator program for 20 global startups working on digital solutions for the healthcare workforce, including training, retention and deployment. Selected startups will receive up to $25,000 in AWS computing credits, training, mentoring and other support.
The new AWS Healthcare Accelerator cohort builds on two previous cohorts, one focused on startups in the U.K. and another on health equity. Similar AWS efforts include the AWS Health Equity Initiative, which has awarded $14 million to date and the AWS Diagnostic Development Initiative.
