At Neopenda, we believe that the most vulnerable patient populations in the world deserve access to high quality health care. We’re a social enterprise startup passionate about improving newborn health through innovative technology solutions, and implementing them sustainably in emerging markets. Neopenda's first product is a scalable wireless vital signs monitor for patients in overcrowded, understaffed health facilities. Our solution reduces response time to newborns in distress, and helps healthcare workers to save more lives.
We are currently validating our technology in clinical studies with our partners in Uganda.
Please contact us if you are interested in learning more about Neopenda, or have any questions or comments.
