At Founder Institute, we take pride in celebrating the achievements of our graduates who are pushing the boundaries of innovation. Today, we are honored to highlight the launch of a groundbreaking product by TAGCarts®, a Founder Institute graduate, in partnership with Inpro, a global leader in interior protection. Together, they’ve introduced the TAG-X® Smart Rail, a wireless, contactless charging system that is set to revolutionize healthcare efficiency, mobility, and safety.
Revolutionizing Healthcare with TAG-X®
The TAG-X® Smart Rail is the product of a groundbreaking collaboration between TAGCarts®, a pioneer in medical carts, workstations, and mobile medical equipment (MME), and Inpro, a trusted leader in healthcare facility solutions. This new innovative product combines patented TAGCarts® technology with a durable Inpro wall guard, offering wireless charging for all medical carts and mobile medical equipment, regardless of battery size or chemistry type. By utilizing existing infrastructure in healthcare facilities, such as bed guards, handrails, and wall protection, the TAG-X® Smart Rail ensures a seamless addition to any environment.
On partnering with Inpro, Taggart Neal, CEO and Founder of TAGCarts®, expressed his pride, saying:
I was tired of seeing nurses and healthcare professionals struggle with problems that seemed to be ignored. Partnering with Inpro was a natural choice given their reputation and expertise in the healthcare industry. Our collaboration aims to tackle these challenges head-on and make a significant impact on the lives of healthcare workers and their patients.
