  We are Filmmakers

  Designers

  Architects

  Educators. We will start with the case study

  but what we are building is a platform that will better teach the most difficult lessons to learn: how to communicate

  to lead

  to inspire

  to tell one's story and learn from someone else's. The future of education is not in a book

  it's not even in a camera. The future is breaking down barriers -- technological

  spatial

  financial -- to learn from each other.

  At Health Digital

  we selectively offer co-ventures for promising ideas and entrepreneurs. We provide free or subsidized programming in exchange for a small portion of equity and become the CTO. Often

  potentially great entrepreneurs are limited by a lack of technological background or finances. We look to remove this barrier in order help promising entrepreneurs reach their potential.\n\nHealth Digital works with over 200 developers around the world. We have HIPAA compliant experts that ensure the most stringent of security. Our technology directors and developers have expertise ranging from EHR to telemedicine platforms (and everything in between). We offer our development team through initial build and then provide an “on-demand option” that allows startups to only utilize development on a “as needed” basis. This is to keep costs low and utilize capital to scale without the need of hiring a full-time development team early on.\n\nOur network includes hospital officials

  countless physicians

  and marketing experts that allow us to help scale an idea at unparalleled rates.
