Chesapeake Digital Health Exchange

A regional runway for digital health: startups, health systems, and capital in the same conversation, anchored in the Johns Hopkins innovation community. The initiative sunset in 2023; the ecosystem it helped knit together keeps evolving across CBID and the lab.

What DHX was for

The exchange focused on connective tissue across Maryland, D.C., and Northern Virginia: entrepreneurs, engineers, payers, health systems, and investors in one lane so analytics, telehealth, sensors, and AI could move from pitch to pilot with eyes open on procurement, policy, and clinical truth.

Convenings & traction

How it showed up

Workshops and relationship-building sat next to practical navigation of regulation and hospital buying. The effort was tied to Johns Hopkins Technology Ventures and the Technology Innovation Center in public descriptions, with federal economic-development support behind regional company growth.
