A Slovak cardiologist, scientist and entrepreneur. He founded Premedix – one of the first precision medicine clinics in Europe. He is also behind one of the most significant healthcare innovations developed in Slovakia. Whilst conducting research into heart failure, he came up with a solution to a problem faced by cardiologists worldwide: between regular check-ups, they have no information about their patients’ condition and often only detect a deterioration in their condition when it is already too late. His start-up, Seerlinq, addresses this problem by using artificial intelligence and a simple finger-worn device for remote patient monitoring. This solution enables the early detection of deteriorating health, thereby helping to reduce the number of hospitalisations and deaths by up to 50 per cent. The technology is currently used in many European countries, where it is covered by health insurance, and is gradually making its way onto the US market. He studied medicine in Prague and clinical research at Oxford. Despite international opportunities, he decided to return to Slovakia. Today, he is proof that technology with a global impact need not originate in Silicon Valley, but can also emerge in Bratislava.
