firsthand is transforming the way individuals living with Serious Mental Illness (SMI) receive care. We are focused on delivering real outcomes for a cohort that has historically been underserved, stigmatized, and deprioritized. By building a service focused on whole-person care, firsthand aims to find, establish a trusting relationship with, and support quality care for individuals living with complex experiences of SMI. Most importantly, our goal is to be the trusted guide, partner, and first call for individuals we serve, guiding them to a life of stability and independence.

This enables us to build solutions that scale and, as a result, change the way our society supports those most impacted by serious mental illness.

Stride Funding, named the 2022 Startup of the Year by Startup Boston, is a venture-backed, mission-driven company that is transforming access to education with innovative forms of financing. We work to increase educational access by leveraging alternative data sets, innovative modeling techniques, and school-support funding to offer outcomes-driven financing products (e.g. income share loans, deferred tuition agreements, and employer-sponsored programs) on the basis of students’ future career trajectory—rather than their historical family credit profile. In the past year, we’ve closed the largest Income Share Loan fund in history, raising $105 million to support non-degree students in high-quality bootcamps, and launched groundbreaking programs to support students at schools ranging from Stanford Law School to General Assembly. Charging ahead on our student-centric mission, Stride Funding has become the largest player in the outcomes-based financing market, supporting students at more than 150 schools and bootcamp programs across the country, with over $135mm in servicing.

Every morning, 10,000 Americans wake up and begin their first day of retirement. Chapter is re-inventing the way that Americans transition into retirement, starting with Medicare. We are re-authoring the retirement narrative by enabling Americans to age with purpose and security and to define their best Chapter. For most people, Medicare is boring, bureaucratic, and confusing. But it's tremendously important. The current Medicare brokerage market is rife with misaligned incentives and path dependence that have pernicious affects on retirees. Our team and technology help retirees to navigate Medicare, including when and how to sign up, what specific plans to choose, and how to maximize the benefits from their coverage. Chapter has built industry-leading technology to help retirees save thousands of dollars on their healthcare. We are the only Medicare advisor (and perhaps the only insurance advisor of any industry) that recommends insurance plans that do not pay us. We build both consumer-facing software that’s highly accessible to our members and internal-facing software that uses our data integration, data modeling, and recommendation engine to give our Medicare advisors super powers.

We believe that therapy is an essential part of becoming the best versions of ourselves. No matter who you are or where you are starting, it’s more than support through challenge - it’s the foundation to grow, heal and lead lives that are more resilient, empathic, hopeful and powerful. Everyone should have the opportunity to receive personalized therapy, and therapists should be able to serve the communities they care about most, not just the 10% of people who can afford to pay out of pocket. Our mission is to get more people into therapy by bridging the gap between therapists and people seeking mental health care. Grow Therapy empowers independent therapists to launch and grow thriving in-network private practices by enabling them to tap into large scale credentialing, referrals, administrative and community support enabled by our passionate team/products. When therapists no longer have the hassle of mundane admin tasks like billing and insurance claims or the limitations of out-of-pocket-only payment options, they can provide care to the communities who need it most! To achieve our lofty ambitions, we’re building an ambitious team of entrepreneurs and mission-driven go-getters. Our founders come from Harvard Medical School, Stripe, and Blackstone, and bring Grow’s mission to life from the inside-out, promoting holistic wellness for all team members. We balance our determination with a culture that champions well-being, from unlimited PTO and a Winter Break to Mental Health Mornings and learning and wellness stipends. Grow is backed by top VCs and angel investors, including leaders from SignalFire, Village Global, Airbnb, Nurx, PatientPing, and Blackstone. We have a long way to go to maximize our impact, but if we do our job well, in the coming years we will make a difference in countless lives. We hope you’ll join us!

We want to radically improve how we humans communicate with each other. Our first step at Ava is to empower 466M deaf and hard-of-hearing people to live in a fully accessible world. Every day, millions of people are excluded from conversations because they cannot hear what others say well. Our CEO Thibault grew up in a Deaf family & witnessed firsthand how the world was not accessible for them. Together with our CTO Skinner — deaf since age 2 — Thibault co-founded Ava to make live captioning of conversations as easy as turning on captions on TV. Our small but fast-growing team has reinvented AI-based speech recognition technology to be in service of people who need it the most. We dream of a 24/7 accessible world, without any communication barrier. In this pursuit, we're seeing how critical communication skills are, yet very far from ideal, to unleash our collective potential. This is for us the ultimate barrier we need to lift. Our belief is that well-designed technology can help everyone communicate and connect better — much more effectively & authentically — so humanity can achieve the greatest things together.
