Kai Eberhardt — CEO
Entrepreneur in Digital Health, passionate about improving the health of many, using technology. I cofounded Oviva inspired by how digital technology and smartphones can increase the accessibility and effectiveness of care for chronic diseases. We help people with obesity, (pre-)type 2 diabetes, and hypertension and are rapidly approaching 1 million patients treated. And much more ahead. Together, we became the digital leader in the largest Diabetes prevention program in the world by the NHS in England, the largest provider of Diabetes Remission services in the UK, and the leading DTx/DiGA in Germany. Over 30’000 doctors regularly refer to Oviva as part of their routine medical care. We have been honored many times, e.g., as a top global digital health company by CB Insights or European growth leader by Tech Tour. We have published over 80 peer-reviewed articles and abstracts and will soon complete our 4th randomized controlled trial. My father said I would make a good used car salesperson - I’d describe myself as an ideas person. I've always loved speed: I broke records during my PhD and am a former world champion in solar car racing.
