Curamei, founded by \u003Cstrong\u003EAditya Singh\u003C\/strong\u003E and his father, seeks to save healthcare providers time and money by connecting siloed clinical workflows into a single, easy-to-use place to search, view, and manage information across a healthcare clinic\u0026#39;s operations. Their software platform sits atop existing workflows currently used in clinics\u0026mdash;consolidating and connecting the data. Their platform offers a simple, easy-to-use interface to gain more insight about their patients and more easily view a patient\u0026rsquo;s accumulated electronic health data. They have partnered with two clinics in Florida to pilot their provider-facing platform.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003ESingh, an undergraduate computer engineering student in the College of Engineering, not only won first place, but he also earned entry into Georgia Tech\u0026rsquo;s CREATE-X program where he will participate in the \u0026ldquo;CREATE-X LAUNCH\u0026rdquo; phase of the program. This startup launch phase provides startups with $5,000 in seed funding and $30,000 worth of in-kind services, including legal and accounting services, coaching, space, mentorship, visibility, and IP protection. Startup Launch is a 12-week summer program where students and alumni \u0026ldquo;intern\u0026rdquo; to launch their own startup.
