SAN FRANCISCO, April 29, 2024 - Osso VR, the leader in immersive procedural training, has been named one of the World’s Top EdTech Companies of 2024 by TIME and Statista. This recognition underscores Osso VR's commitment to advancing medical education through virtual reality simulations, offering clinicians a risk-free environment to master complex procedures effectively.

Osso VR specializes in developing personalized, immersive training and assessment programs tailored to healthcare companies' and clinicians' specific needs and goals. These programs leverage high-fidelity simulations to replicate real-world scenarios, providing healthcare professionals a guided environment to practice procedures effectively. 

Recognized on the World’s Top EdTech Companies list, Osso VR is acknowledged for its dedication to developing innovative educational technologies, products, and services. Winners were evaluated based on several criteria, such as their industry impact and the quality and innovation of their solutions. 

This recognition follows the successful launch of its new app on the Apple Vision Pro and the debut of its Hand Control feature in February. Among 7,000 companies, Osso VR distinguished itself for its technology's exceptional quality and efficacy, offering healthcare companies, such as pharmaceutical or medical device manufacturers and hospital systems, a better way to train. Its unique solution creates immersive experiences that vividly bring clients’ technology to life, facilitating their global expansion, simplifying product adoption, and enhancing workflow competency within the healthcare sector.   

Trainees using Osso VR's technology consistently demonstrate increased confidence and improved procedural performance. Eight peer-reviewed studies have validated the efficacy of this approach, proving that surgeons trained with Osso VR outperform their peers trained with traditional methods. Osso VR's approach to medical education is a key component of the evolving healthcare training landscape and opens up further opportunities to improve how the next generation of clinicians train.

“We are incredibly proud to be named as one of the Top Edtech Companies of 2024,” said Dr. Justin Barad, Chief Strategy Officer and founder of Osso VR. “Educating our frontline clinicians and future providers has become one of the biggest healthcare challenges of our time.
