TechSpring Taps Wealth of Healthcare Innovation in
Western Massachusetts
Once a month, innovators from around Massachusetts descend on TechSpring, the Springfield-based digital health innovation center launched in 2015 by Baystate Health. The monthly 'Tap into TechSpring' event series brings together healthcare and technology innovators to discuss specific issues, talk about ongoing projects, and highlight potential areas for healthcare professionals and technologists to partner together. While most people automatically think Boston or Cambridge when it comes to healthcare in Massachusetts, TechSpring and the Baystate system are making Western Massachusetts and Springfield go-to locations for digital healthcare innovation, overcoming adoption barriers and tapping into the region's community of entrepreneurs.

Located in downtown Springfield, the Commonwealth's third largest city and the unofficial capital of the "Pioneer Valley" of Western Massachusetts, TechSpring's mission is "to accelerate innovation in healthcare informatics and technology in order to solve the very real challenges of healthcare today." Nearly two years before the launch of the Massachusetts Digital Health Initiative, Baystate created TechSpring as a collaborative space where digital health companies and healthcare leaders could come together to drive the creation of healthcare technology and life science solutions that would help improve patient care, communication between providers, and streamline hospital administration.
