Growing Ideas Into Innovations

Every great idea needs space to grow. At Cleveland Clinic Innovations, our health tech Incubator gives startup organizations and portfolio companies the support and tools they need to turn concepts into market-ready products. Together, we share the goal of transforming the future of patient care — one idea at a time.

What Can Our Tech Incubator Do for You?

Research suggests that success rates for incubator-supported startups are nearly double that of businesses that start out on their own. Here’s how our Incubator accelerates success in the marketplace:

  • Location: The Incubator is strategically located on Cleveland Clinic’s renowned main campus, with access to its many clinical institutes, thought leaders and the Lerner Research Institute. We are at the heart of the new Cleveland Innovation District, home to Cleveland Clinic and Case Western Reserve University's Health Education Campus.
  • State-of-the-art facilities: Our 50,000-square-foot tech Incubator features fully equipped laboratory facilities, executive conference rooms, and private and coworking office space, all available for lease. Clients also enjoy on-site parking, a business resource center and other amenities tailored to startup organizations.
  • Support from an experienced team: Incubator clients can receive guidance and support from the Cleveland Clinic Innovations team. The team shares best practices in assessing, building, testing and marketing promising technologies. Clients also benefit from the Innovation team’s deep expertise in pharmaceuticals, diagnostics, medical devices and digital health.
