Alex Young, CEO, Virti

Preparing physicians for the high intensity environment of treating patients is an expensive endeavor that is difficult to scale beyond small, highly resourced classrooms. Virti combines the powerful tools of artificial intelligence and augmented reality (AR) to create a scalable medical training platform.

Virti’s powerful technology is not only scalable but is also engaging. Their immersive simulation is personalized to the user and improves retention of the knowledge imparted during the training. Virti excels at training physicians for high intensity situations via simulation. In addition, physicians want to use Virti to educate patients and walk them through protocols or the patient journey before their procedure.

Virti founder and CEO Alex Young was previously a trauma and orthopedic surgeon and scaled other businesses before building Virti. The platform has been validated by research publications and several awards from the VR/AR community.
