About Henry Ford Innovations

Henry Ford Innovations (HFI) is one the nation’s leading healthcare innovation programs. We are distinguished by the fact that our “lab” is a 2,400 bed integrated hospital system, our “developers” are researchers and world-class medical practitioners, and our “proof-of-concept” uses the full spectrum of Henry Ford’s technology, data and know-how to take a product from concept to rapid adoption.

We are changing the future of healthcare by: 

• Translating leading-edge discoveries for clinical use;
• Creating best-of-class partnering programs with early stage and corporate collaborators;
• Promoting healthcare fairness and equity in systems of care through data standardization and analytics; and
• Spurring regional economic growth by driving the local life sciences innovation ecosystem and serving as a gateway to international healthcare companies.
