NEG+ Innovations is led by a physician-scientist with deep translational medicine, oncology drug development, and medical device expertise — supported by an advisory board assembled for complete commercialization coverage across regulatory, clinical, engineering, and capital domains.
Dr. Jimmy Belotte is a board-certified OB/GYN, physician-scientist, and inventor whose work sits at the intersection of women's health surgical innovation, translational medicine, and medical device entrepreneurship. As Medical Director, Oncology Clinical Development at GlaxoSmithKline, he leads regulatory strategy and protocol design across Phase I/II gynecologic oncology programs — directly informing NEG+'s clinical development and regulatory approach within the broader women's health landscape.
Dr. Belotte's academic foundation — including a PhD in Reproductive Physiology and an MBA with concentrations in healthcare and finance — positions him at the intersection of clinical rigor, translational science, and venture-grade business execution. As both inventor and co-investor in NEG+ Innovations, he brings the rare combination of hands-on surgical insight and capital commitment that defines founder-led medtech. As Former Clinical Associate Professor at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, he maintains active academic clinical relationships that serve as the backbone of NEG+'s investigator network and NIH STTR academic partnership strategy.
NEG+ Innovations was built from a clinical problem-first perspective: each device in the portfolio emerged directly from documented deficiencies Dr. Belotte encountered in women's health surgical practice — then validated through voice-of-customer research, engineering feasibility, and market analysis before a single patent was filed. Every invention carries both his intellectual and financial conviction.
NEG+ Innovations is governed by a Board of Directors combining physician-scientist founding leadership with deep technology commercialization, precision engineering, and life science instrumentation expertise.

"In more than two decades of urogynecologic practice, I have witnessed firsthand how subjective POP-Q examination leads to inconsistent staging — and, ultimately, inconsistent patient care. The POP-Q Sensorized Device™ represents a meaningful step toward the objective, reproducible pelvic floor assessment our field has long needed. I am committed to supporting its rigorous clinical validation at BIDMC and to advancing a platform that can meaningfully improve outcomes for women with pelvic organ prolapse."
We welcome collaboration with leading research institutions, clinical investigators, industry partners, and accredited investors who share our commitment to advancing women's health through precision medical technology.
