WINSTON-SALEM, N.C., March 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — mPATHĀ® Health, a pioneering digital health company dedicated to revolutionizing cancer screening, made an impact at theĀ ViVE 2025 conference in Nashville, TN, earning two prestigious awards that underscore its leadership in healthcare innovation. The company was selected for the highly competitive CancerX Accelerator and was a winner in the HLTH Foundation’s Techquity for Health Case Study Awards competition.
Recognition for Innovation in Cancer Care
The CancerX Accelerator, a flagship program designed to drive innovation in cancer research, prevention, and treatment, chose mPATH Health as one of its 2025 participants. The program brings together top investors, healthcare champions, and high-potential startups to address real-world gaps in cancer care and improve patient outcomes through innovative solutions. mPATH Health’s selection highlights its role in improving access to care and utilizing advanced technology to deliver high-quality cancer screening.
“This recognition is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the mPATH team in transforming cancer screening and care,” said Dr. David Miller, Founder and CEO of mPATH Health. “Being chosen for the CancerX Accelerator and winning the HLTH Foundation’s Techquity award are milestones that validate our mission and our ability to drive change in oncology. We look forward to collaborating with other champions and innovators to tackle unmet needs in cancer care and improve outcomes for all patients.”
The CancerX Accelerator is a flagship program for CancerX, designed to match unmet needs within Champion organizations with suitable innovations from startups in the field. Startups can be championed by one or more organizations and are offered a range of support, from mentorship and product feedback to conducting pilots and signing commercial agreements. This 4-month program also provides startups with a weekly educational curriculum covering four tracks: working with health systems, working with industry, working with the public sector, and a speaker series on scaling their business within oncology.
“The Champion-startup matchmaking process is a unique differentiator in our program that enables startups to get hands-on support from their target customers,” said Nainesh Parikh, MD, assistant chief medical officer at Moffitt Cancer Center and chair of the CancerX Accelerator Steering Committee. “This year we received over 100 applications, had 47 live pitch sessions with 45 judges from more than 14 organizations. Although every single start-up demonstrated incredible talent and innovation, 14 were ultimately selected based on a number of factors including CancerX theme alignment for 2025 and significant organizational support from several Champions.”
Award for Advancing Health Equity
mPATH Health was also honored as one of the six winners of the HLTH Foundation’s Techquity for Health Case Study Awards, which recognize outstanding contributions in health equity through thoughtful technology design. The Techquity competition celebrates digital health solutions that address disparities in healthcare and improve access to care for underserved populations.

It applies to digital health tools, programs and data. This award recognizes mPATH Health’s success improving screening for all individuals, irrespective of race, ethnicity, geographic location, or socioeconomic status.
“These awards provide invaluable opportunities to connect with like-minded organizations that share our commitment to health equity,” said Cassie Allen, Head of Commercial Development at mPATH Health. “By collaborating with other leaders, innovators, and investors, we can scale our solution and bring life-saving cancer screenings to communities that face the greatest barriers to access. These partnerships will help us accelerate our mission to improve healthcare for all.”
The HLTH Foundation’s Techquity award program highlights technology’s power to reduce health disparities and improve outcomes in marginalized communities. mPATH Health’s innovative solutions in cancer screening were recognized for their potential to make a meaningful impact on underserved populations.
