Healthagen- Healthagen believes medicine is a business that suffers from both a lack of information and an inefficient process to find the appropriate resources, and that patients who have access to relevant and targeted information at their time of need, will become empowered. The business model, and mission, is to empower patients by providing relevant information, structured data, and service offerings at a critical time for patients, anywhere they happen to be at their time of need. With iTriage you have access to medical information from over 300 symptoms, 1000 diseases and 350 medical procedures all in the palm of your hands.

SimpleGeo- Ready-to-use location infrastructure for your applications. They currently have three products: a geo-spatial Context Engine, Storage Engine and a comprehensive SDK. The SimpleGeo Context Engine enables application developers to quickly and easily get relevant information about specific locales including (but not limited to) ZIP codes, real-time weather, and geo-tagged media. Additionally, the SimpleGeo Storage Engine makes it possible to store and query location data in a scalable fashion, as well as perform complicated geospatial operations effortlessly.
