WHY WE EXIST

Pushing skyward in an increasingly complex business environment.

We're all operating in a business environment that has never been so complex. Uncertainty abounds, and traditional strategies alone are no longer sufficient for many healthcare organizations to survive, much less succeed. Responsible organizations recognize they must transform, and push forward with initiatives around new revenue streams, innovation, volume-to-value, enterprise data strategy, patient engagement, anticipatory medicine, machine learning, population heath, personalized medicine, MACRA, and the like. However, few organizations have an available bench of in-house experts to address this wide spectrum of challenge and opportunity. Skyward was born under the premise that, in a time of unprecedented complexity in the way healthcare is delivered and paid for, organizations have a need to dynamically augment their own skill set with those of like-minded peers who just so happened to have already navigated through the peaks and valleys of the very challenges they face today.

Precision-matching Problems, Solvers, and Capital.

Skyward’s proprietary underlying platform is designed using modern data science techniques and sophisticated machine learning algorithms that power our matching solutions, Ernie and Nestor.

Ernie is designed to  contextualize available data to precision-rank match your organization’s pain points to be solved, with experts who’ve solved them before and who are eager to help you do the same.

Nestor’s design uses match-and-rank algorithms to pair capital-seeking companies with institutional investors whose investment theses, stage preferences and portfolios collectively imply a strong fit for your venture.
