  • Based in Phoenix, Arizona, the company targeted the persistent issues of inefficiency and high costs in healthcare by creating a unified, web-based community. The platform was developed by a clinician with the aim of being user-centric for other clinicians. The core of the business was a HIPAA-compliant network that connected a wide array of healthcare participants, including physicians, acute and post-acute care facilities, home health agencies, hospice companies, and medical equipment vendors, along with patients and their families. This multi-directional communication channel was intended to break down information silos, allowing providers to share information beyond their individual networks, thereby streamlining workflows and patient transitions. By facilitating resource pooling and cohesive referral coordination, the service aimed to reduce administrative tasks, save costs, and ultimately enhance patient outcomes and satisfaction. The platform's features included tools for patient discharge planning, audit trails for accountability, and even functionalities like a job portal and training hub for providers. Financially, iHealthNetworks raised $84,000 in a single seed funding round in April 2012. Despite its efforts to revolutionize healthcare connectivity, the company is now reported as being out of business or deadpooled as of August 2021.

  • iLinc

    Enterprise software

    iLinc Communications, Inc. operated as a provider of web and video conferencing services, culminating in its acquisition by BroadSoft, Inc. in 2011. Their work, which started in the late 1980s focusing on applying computing and communication technologies to education, received grants from major corporations like AT&T and Intel, leading to the creation of one of the earliest web conferencing platforms, LearnLinc. The original company, ILINC, was bootstrapped before securing venture capital and experienced early success. In 2000, it entered a triple merger to form the Mentergy Corporation, which subsequently faced bankruptcy during the dot-com bust. The core iLinc assets were then purchased in 2002 by EDT Learning, an Arizona-based company, which rebranded itself as iLinc Communications in honor of the well-regarded product. Revenue was generated through monthly subscriptions and pay-per-use plans. The company's product, the iLinc Suite, was a comprehensive platform for virtual meetings, webinars, e-learning, and remote support. It featured multiperson video conferencing, desktop and application sharing, interactive whiteboarding, polling, chat, session recording, and integration with systems like Microsoft Outlook and Salesforce. A distinctive feature was a "green meter" that calculated the environmental savings from reduced travel. BroadSoft acquired iLinc to integrate its web collaboration tools into its own unified communications portfolio, rebranding the service as BroadCloud Web Collaboration.
