To develop the cognitive and physical solutions necessary to prevent 1 million falls.
58% employee growth in 12 months
Technology can be applied to just about any area of healthcare to help patients stay on top of their health issues, and this has resulted in a wide variety of health mobile apps. However, these are often broad in focus and solutions do not exist for essential healthcare points such as balance improvement and fall prevention in elderly people.
Nymbl Science provides a fall prevention program for elderly people, offering a mobile app and exercise structure that helps users to improve their balance, analyze their movements, and prevent falls.
Whilst the company faces competition from MedTech startups that offer a broader range of digital healthcare tools, Nymbl Science has been smart to recognize that many health issues are triggered by falls, designing a program and app specifically to prevent this from happening. The company has been thriving within this niche, drawing in new funding in early 2023 which will fuel the further development of its program.
