Having been recognized four consecutive years in a row, Rendever continues to spearhead the immersive health and AgeTech industries with world-class human-centered technology.

Since 2023, Rendever has been deployed to 225 additional communities. Thirty-four of its senior living operator groups recognized Rendever’s significance and impact on their residents and expanded Rendever to 113 additional community locations. Rendever is now deployed in over 700 care settings across North America and overall sessions have risen over 70% year-over-year, helping the aging population live happier, healthier, more connected lives.
“Our mission is to make aging a celebrated part of life, and one that’s full of vibrant connections. To see our growth recognized by Inc. for a fourth year is rewarding and speaks to the power of what mission-aligned teams can do,” said Kyle Rand, CEO and Co-founder of Rendever.
This year, Rand was recognized as an EY Entrepreneur of the Year and spoke at SXSW about technology’s role in addressing loneliness, along with numerous industry events. Rendever recently completed the world’s largest clinical trial on the use of VR for people living with dementia, with results expected to be published later this year.
