TheraMotive Joins Tech:NYC’s Inaugural Startup:NYC Health-Tech Cohort to Advance Physical Therapy in NYC

Introduction

TheraMotive has been selected for the inaugural Startup:NYC Health‑Tech cohort, an initiative from Tech:NYC designed to accelerate promising health-focused startups. Sharing the stage with visionary founders—including Airbnb’s Brian Chesky—and engaging directly with NYC’s top tech, investment, and policy leaders, this launchpad is set to empower TheraMotive's mission: delivering innovative, physical therapy powered by AI and VR to communities across New York.

This milestone not only recognizes our work but opens the door to strategic partnerships, mentorship, and growth opportunities that will directly benefit the communities we serve.


What Is the Startup:NYC Health-Tech Cohort?

Tech:NYC launched its first Startup:NYC Health‑Tech cohort, a focused 8-week accelerator supporting nine early-stage startups driving solutions in health and wellness tech. This cohort provides tailored resources, including:

  • Mentorship and “Founder House” sessions with seasoned venture capitalists and unicorn entrepreneurs

  • Networking access to NYC’s VC Council, policy makers, and healthcare experts

  • Media and community exposure via Tech:NYC’s platforms and event programming

This initiative was designed to boost startups that combine commercial potential with social impact, making it a perfect match for TheraMotive’s goals.


What TheraMotive Gains from the Program

Participation in this program is more than a badge of honor—it’s a launchpad for expansion. Through Tech:NYC, TheraMotive gains:

  • Tailored mentorship from leaders in venture capital and health-tech

  • Visibility among investors and decision-makers looking to support scalable care models

  • Opportunities for public-sector partnerships to expand mobile rehab access across boroughs

  • Strategic exposure that enhances our reputation as a mission-driven, tech-forward healthcare company

These benefits align directly with TheraMotive’s goals: to make physical therapy more accessible, more effective, and more equitable for seniors and vulnerable populations throughout NYC.


Why This Matters for NYC’s Health-Tech Future

New York City is emerging as one of the fastest-growing health-tech hubs in the U.S. According to Tech:NYC, NYC-based health-tech companies raised $2.2 billion in the first half of 2024, with over $1 billion going to AI-driven care platforms. Investors are actively backing companies that address real-world problems with scalable, technology-enabled solutions.

TheraMotive fits this profile perfectly. Our AI-enhanced diagnostics, VR-assisted rehabilitation, and mobile care delivery model offer a practical and impactful solution to persistent gaps in access—especially for homebound patients, post-stroke individuals, and underserved neighborhoods.

Being part of this cohort places TheraMotive at the center of New York’s healthcare innovation ecosystem, surrounded by influential mentors, policymakers, and fellow founders committed to reimagining how care is delivered.


Let’s Move Healthcare Forward—Together

Our selection for the Tech:NYC Health-Tech cohort is not just recognition—it’s momentum. It reflects the growing demand for equitable, tech-enabled rehabilitation services and positions TheraMotive to lead that transformation in New York and beyond.
