Success Story: One step closer to enabling better breathing

Our innovation story: Timely detection of dysfunctional breathing is often a challenge and its failure causes further ailments. We have developed a unique personalised coaching feedback system for people with disruptive breathing that acts as both, a sensor and a therapeutic module. Our earlier application had over 25,000 downloads and was nominated for the Health Award in 2013 in the Netherlands by the Royal Dutch Medical Academy (KNMG).
Our HealthCode.io journey: We were one of the earliest members to join the app. In a short time, we have partnered with a Netherlands-based venture capitalist investment fund that enables healthcare technology and infrastructure innovations. We are currently in talks to chart the next steps. On HealthCode.io, I seek funding and more opportunities to share our technology globally this year.
