San Francisco well being tech agency strikes HQ to MetroCenter | Well being Care
A San Francisco health tech startup that provides artificial intelligence tools to automate operations for healthcare providers moves its headquarters to Nashville.
A five-person team from DARVIS, an acronym for Data Analytic Real-World Visual Intelligence System, will move to a MetroCenter office at 240 Great Circle Road in June. The company also has international offices in Germany, Great Britain and Pakistan.
DARVIS provides technologies that automate the clinical workflow, from determining whether staff are wearing appropriate personal protective equipment, to tracking the condition and availability of hospital beds in a facility. AI technology can also track medical inventory and assess the hygiene of medical devices.
Led by co-founders Jan Schlueter and Jan-Philipp Mohr, the company is leaving San Francisco after participating in the Nashville Entrepreneur Center’s Project Healthcare, an accelerator program with a network of nearly 70 mentors, including the leadership of HCA Healthcare, BlueCross BlueShield, among others the Nashville Health Care Council and LifePoint Health.
The move enables the company to market its tools that are already in use in Germany to the constantly growing clinical network in Nashville.
“With the introduction of automated technologies in the work area, providers have more time to do what they are trained to do – patient care,” Schlüter said in the press release. “The concentration of healthcare systems and the vast experience of healthcare stakeholders in Nashville made the city the perfect place to move our headquarters.”
