According to estimates from the United Nations, 500 million people worldwide receive a diabetes diagnosis every five seconds, and by 2030, there will be an estimated 643 million cases. Ed Deng noticed how time-consuming and error-prone it was for family members to record their blood sugar levels on a regular basis in order to effectively manage diabetes, particularly while interacting with carers or healthcare institutions. Co-founding Health2Sync in 2013, he started creating digital healthcare solutions. Patients can record their daily health data with the Health2Sync app by integrating it with various devices and measurements, such as blood pressure, weight scales, wireless insulin pens, and blood sugar monitors. Healthcare providers may easily and reliably examine this data on the Patient Management Platform, which serves as a foundation for appropriate medicine prescriptions and food recommendations. Worldwide, there are over 1.2 million registered users of the Health2Sync app. Health2Sync has partnered with global leaders in diabetes treatment, including Abbott, Sanofi, Novo Nordisk, and AstraZeneca. The company's global reach encompasses more than 600 healthcare facilities and associated institutions. In this episode we are honored to have Ed Deng, Co-Founder and CEO of Health2Sync, join us on this episode to discuss his philosophy and the motivational tales that have contributed to Health2Sync's success. In this episode of Startup Island Taiwan Podcast, you will find out: ☛ Since monitoring diabetes can be so difficult, Ed was inspired to develop a technological solution ☛ How did Ed acquire his initial users? ☛ People in healthcare industry should establish partnership in order to implement the programme and gather real-world information ☛ Ed believes there will be plenty of innovation and opportunity in the HealthTech market Host: Asianometry, deep tech channel with 628k followers, still growing Guest: Ed Deng, Co-Founder and CEO of Health2Sync Powered by Startup Island TAIWAN Directed by National Development Council Produced by Meet Global by Business Next Media 👉More news of Taiwan startups: https://meetstartup.pse.is/4jhd5u 👉Follow us on LinkedIn: https://meetstartup.pse.is/4hhbhg 📪 Email us: [email protected] Leave a comment and share your thoughts: https://open.firstory.me/user/cl8jubp5t01v601sl4vys57dj/comments Powered by Firstory Hosting

In the very precise aerospace sector, confidence is essential. NASA intends to deploy several "Data Cubes" on the moon in September of 2023. These cubes will enable astronauts in the future to "check in'' and use blockchain technology to confirm their existence on the moon. The information on the blockchain can be used to validate any scepticism or conspiracy ideas. Not only NASA, but even Slovakian blockchain startup 3IPK sees blockchain's promise in "space." They store extremely private information, such as satellite imaging data and supply chain information, using blockchain technology. This approach has attracted interest from the European Space Agency, Airbus, and even the Taiwan Space Agency. Space data can facilitate accurate transactions, just like cryptocurrencies do! The aerospace sector, where mistakes are not tolerated, has greatly benefited from 3IPK's increased reliability! In this episode, Ashley Reeves, Head of Taiwan & Asia Pacific at 3IPK, and co-founder Juraj Zamecnik talk about their shared goal, the history of their company, and how 3IPK came to work with the Taiwan Space Agency.  In this episode of Startup Island Taiwan Podcast, you will find out: ☛ Juraj's dedication to the aerospace sector is not by happenstance. ☛ The rationale behind establishing a firm in Taiwan  ☛ Some of the supply chain management difficulties that businesses in this industry confront ☛ In what ways do blockchain and other technologies ensure security, legitimacy, and confidence? ☛ In what direction do Ashley and Juraj see 3IPK heading?

Global digital technology is booming, particularly in the midst of the epidemic, when a lot of activities have moved fully online and are flooding the internet with a tonne of data and information. Acknowledging the potential for decentralisation and immutability of blockchain technology to improve certificate administration in a number of industries, Jeff established Turing Space in 2018 with the goal of revolutionising the digital certification space. With the help of Turing Certs, a blockchain-based certificate system, issuers can permanently keep certificate data on the network, increasing the legitimacy and traceability of their certificates. Owners of certificates can utilise management tools to ensure the integrity and authenticity of their certificates. As we enter a new era of technology in the twenty-first century, how can individuals make sense of the abundance of information at their disposal? We are delighted to have Jeff Hu, the CEO and founder of Turing Certs, discuss his vision, the backstory of the business, and how Turing Certs got to where it is today in this episode.

Cooby, a Taipei-based startup founded in late 2020, created a CRM application that combines data from LINE and Gmail into WhatsApp. Taiwanese people were less familiar with WhatsApp than they were with LINE, but it has more potential and could bring in more money. The Cooby team chose to focus on WhatsApp in order to achieve the larger objective. The benefits that follow are not only substantial—there are 2 billion active users each month—but they also draw the interest of global venture capital. Cooby has received orders from customers in a number of nations over its three years of operation, suggesting that there is a market for Cooby anywhere there is a high percentage of WhatsApp usage. We are honoured to have  Jocelyn Ho, Co-founder and CTO of Cooby, join us on this episode to discuss how she leads Cooby into the global market and faces intense competition by having the courage to accept change. She also talks about how Cooby has been able to effectively acquire orders from clients in several nations in its three plus years of operation. In this episode of Startup Island Taiwan Podcast, you will find out: ☛ Cooby began with a side project  ☛ Jocelyn's opinions about Whatsapp as a platform, given that building on top of someone else's creations is a little risky ☛ In the startup, everyone should have a say about the decision of future   ☛ Everyone in the startup should be part of making decisions regarding the future ☛ Disparities between Taiwanese and US investors Host: Asianometry, deep tech channel with 600k followers, still growing Guest: Jocelyn Ho, Co-founder & CTO of Cooby Powered by Startup Island TAIWAN Directed by National Development Council Produced by Meet Global by Business Next Media 👉More news of Taiwan startups: https://meetstartup.pse.is/4jhd5u 👉Follow us on LinkedIn: https://meetstartup.pse.is/4hhbhg 📪 Email us: [email protected] Leave a comment and share your thoughts: https://open.firstory.me/user/cl8jubp5t01v601sl4vys57dj/comments Powered by Firstory Hosting
