Top Information Technology Startups in 2024

In an increasingly digital world, MemoryWell is solving a growing list of healthcare’s most challenging engagement problems with an unexpected solution: Empathetic, human interaction. Our solutions make the person the center of healthcare. MemoryWell delivers dramatic increases in satisfaction and retention. And our rich, person-centered dialogs yield the most accurate SDOH and HRA data available. MemoryWell grew out of the experience our founder, Jay Newton-Small, had caregiving for her father, who had Alzheimer's. When she moved him into a senior community, she was asked to fill out a long questionnaire about his life. This made no sense: who would remember pages of hand-written data points for 100+ residents in that community? Instead, as a longtime TIME Magazine correspondent, she wrote his story for his caregivers and pasted it on the walls throughout the community. It transformed his care. Two of his caregivers were Ethiopian and they'd had no idea Jay’s father, Graham, had lived in Ethiopia for years early on in his career with the United Nations. They became his champions, sitting for hours asking him about what it was like to work with Emperor Haile Selassie. Seeing the impact her story had on her father’s experience was enough to influence Jay to transition from her role at TIME to launch MemoryWell. In addition to the life stories product, MemoryWell has leveraged insights and journalistic engagement to reduce churn in Medicare Advantage. Medicare Advantage churn averages 10% and is as high as 40% during the first 90 days. Enrollees have grown numb to automated texts and robocalls, resulting in expensive data gaps. MemoryWell provides human-to-human engagement that resolves these problems with skillful conversation, relationship building, and education.

In a world turbo-charged by social media, the old world of traditional consumer research is no longer enough. Where there’s slow and pre-emptive questionnaires and surveys, now there’s continuous big data, algorithms and machine learning. For some, it’s unknown territory. For Black Swan Data, it’s unprecedented possibilities. Black Swan Data is revolutionising consumer research through Social Prediction™. Using the most sophisticated data science and AI techniques, we unlock the full potential of social data to understand and predict consumer behaviour more accurately and further ahead than anyone else.

Today our team of 260 Swans (and counting) includes data scientists, developers, insights consultants, analysts, designers, engineers and marketeers. But first, we’re entrepreneurs and champions of change who thrive on moving fast and breaking new ground. And our work is getting us noticed.

And in both 2017 and 2018 we ranked high in the Financial Times 1000 Europe’s Fastest Growing Companies.

Before i got my actual name 'Journey' the actual journey of how my name evolved and how i developed an identity is an interesting story.   I was going to be named Uplift, Mutually, United, Together and what not. But when my actual mission was being ideated upon, Journey was something which resonated the most. Because i'm all about that; About connecting people who are on this life's journey together, trying out new things, exploring themselves. While i was growing up, many people questioned how was i different than others. And my answer was always the same - that i was about the process. The goal is the outcome of the process, and while my fellow friends (Facebook and Instagram) were about sharing your achievements, showcase your life at best - i was about showcasing your life as it goes through, with the people who could understand. I was more real. I was about the journey, and my mission was to bring people in this journey together, give them an environment which motivates them to pursue their interests and move forward. I am on a mission to bring this connected but still disconnected world closer. Because i believe that when people collaborate & connect, it gives birth to new ideas and innovation. I aim to create journeys for us humans to advance forward faster, while bringing out the best in all.

Beauhurst is a platform that lets you access rich information on UK high-growth companies. Using a combination of thousands of online sources and manual research, we constantly look out for news, updates and activity on these ambitious companies. Once a company meets our criteria, we create a "deep data" profile and actively track its activity, right up until exit.We add a huge variety of data points to these profiles, from senior contacts and services, to financials, fundraisings and their investors. We are committed to constantly verifying our data, and making it as easy to use as possible. We found the Standard Industry Classification (SIC) codes a bit unhelpful, so we created our own sector matrix. And we got tired of confusing descriptions of funding rounds, so we created our own stages of evolution - used by the British Business Bank.
