About Luminoah
Luminoah makes Luminoah Flow, an FDA-cleared enteral feeding system for people who rely on tube feeding. It combines a compact, lightweight pump with connected software. The system gives patients and clinicians real-time nutrition data while its mobile design supports use at home and away. A touchscreen serves patients and caregivers, while Bluetooth links the pump to its mobile app.
Based in Charlottesville, Virginia, Luminoah is led by founder and chief executive officer Neal Piper and chief operating officer Garrett Marin. Piper assembled a medical-device team after his son needed enteral nutrition during cancer treatment. Kelsey Cox is chief of staff. Quality director Rawley Rearick II, national accounts director Kim Gonano, and software manager Hunter Ramp also appear on the team page. It also names senior R&D engineer Jordan Word and systems engineer Janine Icalla. Luminoah names Piper, Joe Andrasko, Brian Hansen, and Dr. Tom Hawes as board members. It plans a phased U.S. rollout.

Why Investors Backed Luminoah
Luminoah develops portable feeding equipment for people who receive nutrition through a tube. Its named product is the Luminoah Flow enteral nutrition system. The company also provides a mobile application and related services.
The problem it targets
Luminoah’s view is that people who depend on tube feeding need equipment that is simpler to carry and use. It focuses on portable nutrition delivery for daily life. The company links this work to more personalized care for chronic disease.
What the product does
Luminoah Flow pairs a compact feeding pump with a mobile application. The app extends the system with related services. Support materials explain setup, feed programming, and feed management.
Progress so far
MedTech Innovator selected Luminoah for its 2025 accelerator cohort. Luminoah also won Startup World Cup Virginia. The American Gastroenterological Association and MATTER selected it for their inaugural incubator in December 2025. Luminoah Flow received FDA clearance in April 2026. Founder Neal Piper received an EY Mid-Atlantic entrepreneur award that June.
