SAN FRANCISCO, September 8, 2017 — Tue Health, a digital health start-up company that has developed a unique solution for monitoring and aiding in home management of pediatric asthma, today announced that StartX has awarded Tue a position in their Fall 2017 accelerator program. StartX is an educational non-profit that accelerates the development of Stanford’s top entrepreneurs through tactical help and resources, experiential education, funding, and a vast network of mentors, investors, and domain experts.

Myself and my co-founders are thrilled to be selected for the StartX accelerator program,” said Tue Founder and CEO, Bronwyn Harris, MD.  “The access to the community, world class advisors, and a variety of business resources is invaluable to Tueo’s success and we are honored to have been chosen.”
