Public description
About the program
Medtronic LABS began as an internal Medtronic venture and was spun out as an independent nonprofit that designs and scales technology-enabled care delivery models for underserved communities. It operates as a venture-building organization rather than a startup cohort accelerator, developing and deploying its own platforms in partnership with health systems and governments. It is included as Medtronic's most prominent structured innovation vehicle.
