Aatio Digital – "Why Pilots Don't Scale"
From Pilot to Production: The Governance Gap Costing Healthcare Organisations Millions
AI investment in healthcare is rising. Returns are not. Most initiatives stall between proof-of-concept and production, not because the technology failed, but because the organisation was never ready to deploy it.
This session examines why AI pilots fail across clinical and operational settings, what vendors won't tell you before you sign, and what governance frameworks the most successful health systems put in place before, not after, things go wrong. Healthcare leaders and investors will leave with a clear, vendor-neutral view of where AI value is being lost and a practical framework for protecting their next investment.
What we’re asking for: Engagement with system leaders to apply and test governance readiness frameworks on active or upcoming AI initiatives in NB.
Venn Innovation Startups – “From idea to impact”
From Startup to System Impact: Building and Scaling Health Innovation in New Brunswick
Building and Scaling Tech-based Health Innovation in New Brunswick doesn’t fail because of a lack of ideas; it fails in the gap between startup-proposed solutions and system adoption. Venn Innovation plays a critical role in bridging that gap by supporting tech startups as they move from ideation, validation, proof of concept, and market-ready solutions. In the context of NB’s Digital Health Strategy, this session explores how startups can align with system needs, navigate procurement pathways, and engage early adopters. For healthcare leaders, this is an opportunity to understand how to absorb the startup ecosystem as a source of innovation, while reducing risk and accelerating time-to-impact.
What we’re asking for: Commitment from system partners to co-develop a structured early adoption pathway, including identified pilot environments and clear procurement/onboarding criteria.
TechTap – “Real Time Health Intelligence at the Edge”
Digital Tools for Mental Wellness and Preventive Care
As NB’s healthcare strategy emphasizes prevention and patient engagement, digital tools that support mental wellness and self-management at the edge are gaining importance. These tools expand access to preventive care, reduce strain on healthcare systems, and support early detection of chronic and infectious diseases. Their value is rising sharply as digital health infrastructure matures and organizations shift toward preventive, data‑driven, and value‑based care models. We connect patients to mindfulness and well-being resources through accessible digital platforms, empowering individuals to take an active role in their health. This session explores how our tool complements and empowers clinical services, reduces demand on frontline care, and integrates into broader digital front door initiatives, while letting patients control their data. Attendees will learn how to position patient engagement technologies as part of a scalable, preventive care model.
What we’re asking for: Integration and collaboration opportunities within a digital front door or community care initiative to extend reach, reduce friction at the point of care, and bring proactive screening into settings where traditional systems aren’t succeeding.
Neopric – "Clarity for Care, Insight from Records."
Unlocking Clinical Intelligence: Turning Health Records into Actionable Insight
Health systems generate vast amounts of clinical data, most of it locked in unstructured redundant records, intake forms, and siloed systems. Neopric, a Canadian AI company, can build on your infrastructure to change that. On the front end we replace static intake with an intelligent clinical data engine using 110+ validated assessment forms, AI-generated SOAP notes, and automated risk flagging. The magic happens on the back end, processing thousands of pages of medical records and returning structured chronologies, causation analyses, and risk stratification in hours, with page-level citations for full defensibility. Together, they form a structured data input and actionable insight output. In alignment with NB's Digital Health Strategy, this session explores how Neopric's agentic AI stack can help New Brunswick Health move from manual data collection to high-accuracy, AI-driven action, across intake, documentation, and performance measurement.
What we’re asking for: Access to de-identified clinical data to validate targeted use cases, and a pilot site within behavioral health to deploy and evaluate real-world impact.
Exosquelettes – “Rebuilding movement. Restoring independence.”
From Rehabilitation to Reintegration: Advancing Mobility Through Wearable Robotics
Mobility challenges impact quality of life, healthcare utilization, and long-term care demand. Exosquelettes Canada brings innovative wearable robotic solutions that support rehabilitation and restore independence for patients with mobility impairments. Beyond clinical settings, exoskeletons protect workers from musculoskeletal injuries caused by repetitive movements and physically demanding tasks. They reduce muscular effort, prevent workplace injuries, and support workforce retention. As NB looks to improve patient outcomes while managing system capacity, this session explores how exoskeleton technologies can be integrated into rehabilitation pathways, community care settings, and workplaces.
What we’re asking for: Leaders are invited to consider pilot opportunities that demonstrate both clinical impact, occupational health value, and social return on investment.
The Black Arcs – “Turn complexity into clarity”
From Data to Decisions: Making Sense of Complex Health Systems Through Applied AI
Healthcare systems, to be effective, need to stay ahead of the communities they serve. The Black Arcs are the makers of Citisketch - a digital twin technology that uses advanced analytics, AI, and simulation to enable dynamic “what-if” analysis on complex datasets. As NB moves toward a more data-driven health system, this session will present real-time scenario planning of how shifting demographics, epidemiological changes, and policy interventions affect demand on the emergency department at the Dr. Georges-L.-Dumont University Hospital Centre. Attendees will gain insight into how data can move beyond reporting to become a real-time decision support tool across governance, clinical operations, and system planning.
What we’re asking for: Access to anonymized system-level datasets to demonstrate a proof-of-value use case supporting operational or policy decision-making.
ClinicGlide – “Fixing the patient flow problem”
From Waiting Rooms to Workflows: Patient Flows Across Care Continuum
As New Brunswick expands Collaborative Care Clinics and invests in digital front door strategies, managing patient flow across fragmented systems remains a real bottleneck. Access is inconsistent, demand is hard to manage in real time, and clinics are often left reacting instead of delivering care effectively. ClinicGlide provides an AI-powered front door using voice and SMS agents to handle switchboard, intake, triage, scheduling, and routine patient requests as they come in. Instead of relying on overloaded phones, multi-day callback cycles, and manual processes, clinics can manage demand continuously and make better use of the capacity they already have. The result is simpler operations for staff, lower administrative costs, better use of clinical time, and a better experience for patients trying to access care. This session explores how health systems can move from reactive patient management to proactive flow coordination using an AI Front Door.
What we’re asking for: a partnership to pilot an AI front door within Collaborative Care Clinics in New Brunswick, with a focus on real-world impact, measurable outcomes, and a path to scale.
Virtuose Technologies – “Care, anywhere, monitoring”
Beyond the Hospital Walls: Scaling Remote Monitoring for Proactive, Continuous Care
With increasing pressure on hospitals and a growing focus on community-based care, remote patient monitoring is becoming a cornerstone of modern healthcare delivery. Virtuose Technologies enables continuous monitoring of patients in their homes, supporting early intervention and reducing avoidable hospital visits. This session explores how wearable technologies can be integrated into NB’s care pathways, particularly within Collaborative Care Clinics and chronic disease management strategies. Healthcare leaders are invited to examine how to deploy and scale remote monitoring solutions that improve outcomes while reducing system burden.
What we’re asking for: A pilot cohort within Collaborative Care Clinics or home care programs to validate outcomes such as reduced hospital visits and improved patient care.
Breathe BioMedical – “Breathing data into disease detection”
From Breath to Bedside: Intercepting Cancer Early for Better Outcomes and System Sustainability
Breathe BioMedical is advancing non-invasive breath analysis to enable rapid, data-driven diagnostics that identify cancer at its most treatable stages.
