After 2020, healthcare startups will never be the same.

Amid a pandemic, venture funding for startups hit a record, billion-dollar deals were struck, and companies braved the public markets for the first time.

With all eyes on the industry heading into 2021, Business Insider's healthcare team interviewed 26 healthcare investors to learn which startups are poised to take off this year.

We asked the investors to name companies from their firms' portfolios, and ones they haven't invested in. We noted when investors have stakes in the companies they nominated.

For some, that meant identifying startups that have seen their businesses take off amid the pandemic, like Everlywell, and others that have had to adapt as more care moved online, like Cityblock Health. Others still picked startups finding new ways to tackle conditions like ADHD, as Akili Interactive is doing with its FDA-approved video game.
