About
smallTalk develops neurodevelopmental medical devices for NICU infants and their families. The NICU Egg is a speaker system engineered specifically for NICU use that plays recorded caregiver voices at safe volumes and durations, helping maintain parent-infant bonding during hospital stays. Developed with support from the National Institutes of Health and Nationwide Children's Hospital, smallTalk's technology is grounded in neonatal neuroscience research. The company's ACTIVE Egg pairs with a sensor-equipped pacifier to support brain development in preterm infants. smallTalk is a Techstars Columbus 2025 cohort company expanding toward consumer products for early childhood development.
