In a combined three-city bid, Dallas, Austin, and San Antonio competed to win one of the regional hubs from the newly created federal agency. One of the three ARPA-H hubs to the Dallas-Austin-San Antonio consortium—a Customer Experience hub that will be physically headquartered at the Dallas’ biotech hub, Pegasus Park. The Customer Experience hub in Dallas will focus on developing health solutions that will be “accessible, needed, and readily adopted.
The other two hubs include the Investor Catalyst hub, awarded to Cambridge, Massachusetts; and the Stakeholder and Operations hub, to be located in the Washington, D.C, region.
The overarching goal of ARPANET-H will be to enable health problems to be solved faster, with accessible, equitable solutions reaching the American public more quickly.
