StrideTech Medical is proud to announce that the USPTO has issued a patent for StrideTech Go as of March 15, 2022.
Over 3 years ago, a team of students at the University of Colorado Boulder decided to use their engineering and design skills to invent a technology that helps older adults improve their mobility and prevent falls. This team founded StrideTech Medical Inc. and this week the USPTO issued them a patent for their technology, StrideTech Go. We all know that a patent is not necessarily defensible for an early stage company. So, what does a patent really mean for StrideTech Medical?
A patent showcases the novelty of StrideTech Go, nobody else has created this technology. Receiving a utility patent is a long, challenging and expensive process, showcasing the resilience and dedication of the team. This patent is only the beginning. StrideTech Medical has already filed an international patent application and plan to continue expanding their intellectual property through trade secrets and research efforts.
StrideTech’s patent opens up exciting possibilities for the company. As an early-stage company, this patent is an important factor in creating value for investors. Since sales for medical devices can take time due to FDA approval, patents make up a significantly greater portion of enterprise value for early-stage companies. Furthermore, this patent could lead to collaborations, joint ventures, and licenses with strategic partners.
With 6 of the top 10 tech giants diversifying into the healthcare industry, they are making significant acquisitions and adopting a more data-driven approach to healthcare. This shift in industry focus caters to StrideTech’s technology and presents partnership opportunities with tech companies who are unfamiliar with the clinical and regulatory aspects of this industry.
StrideTech’s patent is just the beginning. If you are interested in hearing more about StrideTech Medical, and the opportunities you may have to join our venture, join our mailing list and stay tuned for more exciting updates!
StrideTech defines short term efficacy as the ability to see changes in StrideTech Go measures of walker use in a single product testing session. In this white paper we present data that was collected from a walker repair event held at a Modena Cherry Creek Senior Living.

Transitional movements such as turning can be a vital indicator of mobility quality, with longer turning durations being an indicator of higher fall risk. With StrideTech Go, we can use our hip-distance measurements to determine 1. If someone is turning, 2. The duration of their turn and, 3. How much their hip-distance deviates from their baseline during a turn, 4. use our left- and right-hand force measurements to determine asymmetrical gait.

We launched our equity crowdfunding campaign for our first product, StrideTech GO, just over a month ago. The road to launching our campaign included three years of testing and research. Our StrideTech GO smart walker attachment would not be the quality of product it is today without the help and support of Dr. Bradley Davidson and our partnership with the Human Dynamics Laboratory at the University of Denver.

By 2030, 1 in 5 Americans will be over the age of 65. The number of older adults in the United States is growing. This makes the need for safe, cutting-edge technology that will help our aging population live their highest quality of life, critical. While senior care has been slower to embrace technology, communities that are utilizing technology are paving the way to the future of senior care. This shared belief is how StrideTech quickly aligned with Modena Cherry Creek Senior Living.
