Austin has taken a shine to spine companies with cutting edge technologies.

Warsaw, IN may be known as the Orthopedic Capital of the World, but spine technology companies are more likely to hang their hat in Austin, TX.

“Austin has become a well-respected area for spine companies with cutting edge technologies to address new opportunities,” said Jerry DeVries, a managing partner at Texo Ventures.

DeVries sits on the boards of two Austin-based spine startups, Ortho Kinematics Inc., and Wenzel Spine Inc., both of which are included in this list of companies that have contributed to Austin’s growing reputation as a spine technology hub.

A few Austin-born spine companies have grown up and moved away (via acquisition by a larger orthopedics firm), but most of them still have roots in the Lone Star State’s Silicon Hills.
