Most people living with chronic conditions have more than one, yet digital health is full of point solutions for specific conditions. Dr. Tryggvi Thorgeirsson transformed that insight into Sidekick Health, which takes a platform approach to addressing a patient's complex needs.
The company is growing fast, both organically and through acquisition. The latest addition, PINK! specializes in cancer care and women's health.
Tryggvi is from Iceland, and I enjoyed uncovering his fascinating journey. He shares personal stories from his time with a volunteer mountaineering rescue squad and his extensive educational path through the University of Iceland, MIT Media Lab, and Harvard School of Public Health.
I knew there were a lot of hot, emerging geothermal features in Iceland. Now I know of at least one hot, emerging digital health company, too.
