Welcome to Cleveland's Health Tech Corridor

Stephen McHale

CEO & CO-FOUNDER

“We’ve amassed the largest clinical data set in the world, and we did it in 5 years, so we’ve passed all of the competitors by usually a factor of 2 in how fast our data assets grow.”

History of the
Health-Tech Corridor

The HTC was founded in 2010 as a public-nonprofit collaboration between BioEnterprise, The Cleveland Foundation, the City of Cleveland, and MidTown Cleveland. Recognizing there was a lack of suitable space to house the growing number of health-tech and high-tech businesses spinning out of the City’s anchor institutions, the HTC partners came together behind this unique effort to develop, brand, and market a health-tech and high-tech business corridor on the east side of Cleveland. The HTC is housed at MidTown Cleveland.
