Initially targeting liver disease, a $30B global diagnostic market, Oncoustics has filed a Breakthrough Device Designation Request with the FDA for the OnX that detects liver fibrosis and the 510K is underway.

Clinify Inc — Medical records are barely digitized in Africa. The lack of digitally centralized health records has led to a large number of preventable deaths as a result of wrong and self diagnosis by patients due to poor to no medical histories, paper record mismatch, long wait times and missed revenue opportunities.

Our solution cuts wait time in half, enables users to easily access, populate, own and centralize their health records. This allows them to control and better understand their encounters, book appointments via a web portal and mobile app, have virtual consultation with healthcare professionals and providers while running it on a low cost infrastructure without affecting system performance.
