🎤 Invst Guru Founder Series 🎤

In this episode of Invst Guru, host Jeff “Fuzzy” Wenzel sits down with Sona Shah, CEO and co-founder of Neopenda — a medtech startup on a mission to bring life-saving healthcare innovation to underserved hospitals around the world.

From her beginnings as a teacher in Kenya to leading a global health tech company, Sona shares the inspiring journey behind Neopenda’s wearable vital signs monitor — a device helping nurses detect newborns in distress and prevent deaths from preventable causes like hypothermia and respiratory failure.

After ten years of research, design, and clinical testing, Neopenda is now in 40+ hospitals across Kenya, with plans to scale to thousands more across Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Recognized by the United Nations and the World Health Organization, Neopenda is redefining how medical technology can serve the 85% of the world without reliable access to healthcare.

• Lessons from building a medtech company from the ground up

• Overcoming regulatory and market challenges in global health
