October 24, 2025 – The Coordinated Accessible National (CAN) Health Network is pleased to announce a partnership with Cisco Canada aimed at advancing digital health innovation and accelerating the growth of Canadian health technology companies.

Through this partnership, Cisco will bring its global leadership in secure, reliable connectivity to support the development and deployment of digital health solutions across the country. From virtual care to connected infrastructure, Cisco’s technology helps power the digital backbone of modern health care.

Launched in 2019, the CAN Health Network brings together leading health care organizations from across the country to identify real-world challenges and match them with Canadian-made technology solutions. By helping Canadian companies scale within the health system, the Network drives economic growth, supports job creation, improves the health of Canadians, and strengthens Canada’s innovation ecosystem.

“Cisco’s expertise in digital infrastructure is critical to the future of health care,” said Dr. Dante Morra, Founder and CEO, CAN Health Network. “Together, we’re creating new opportunities for Canadian companies to grow and transform health care through digital technology, and ultimately, help deliver better care for Canadians.”

Since its launch in 2019, the CAN Health Network has supported over 100 Canadian companies, launched 130 commercialization projects, contributed to more than 2,300 new jobs, and generated over $700 million in revenue.
