Mandate and remit
Cedars-Sinai Technology Ventures is the health system's publicly described home for intellectual property, venture investment, and startup acceleration. A Cedars-Sinai newsroom article states that Technology Ventures is led by James D. Laur, JD, chief intellectual property officer, and Nirdesh K. Gupta, PhD, managing director. That article reports a portfolio of more than 500 technologies, more than 1,100 patents, and more than $1 billion in technology transfer revenue over the prior five years. The Cedars-Sinai Accelerator, later presented as Accelerator+, is described on official program pages as a Los Angeles-based program created to help entrepreneurs bring healthcare technology products to market. Early program materials described a three-month program with $100,000 in funding and mentorship from more than 300 clinicians and executives, beginning in 2016. Current Accelerator+ materials describe a longer venture-building platform for seed-stage healthcare companies that includes capital, clinical and market expertise, and evaluation inside the Cedars-Sinai Health System. This profile reports those official statements and does not treat revenue or patent counts as a ranking.
These routes appear in the program's sourced public record.
