When I initially bootstrapped Tembo Health 6 years ago, I never imagined that we'd make it to the largest and most powerful technology conference in the world. With 130,000 attendees and 4,000 exhibitors, #CES2024 harnesses the power of networking intertwining global brands, startups, and innovators. We are grateful to the AgeTech Collaborative™ from AARP for this awesome opportunity. Visit our team at pavilion 53623 to learn how Tembo Health bundles thoughtful technology and virtual care services to support seniors with dementia and their families. And we are twicely blessed to be featured in a second location within the Samsung Electronics connected health home (pavilion 54223), which showcases our passive remote patient monitoring sensors and algorithms for early detection of illness. If you or a loved one need support with dementia care, please sign up here for a free assessment: www.tembo.health #dementiacare #innovationinhealthcare #caregiversupport #ittakesavillage #agetech #silvertech Tanya Perkins, Franklin Shen, John C., Andy Miller, Rick Robinson, Deborah Jordan, Amelia Hay, Ken Honeycutt, Sean Park, Alzheimer's Association®, CES, AARP, Samsung Healthcare, Resolute Ventures, Bloomberg Beta, B Capital , Emerson Collective, Primetime Partners, Recharge Venture Group, Alumni Ventures, City Light Capital, MBX Capital, 1501 Health, MassChallenge, Entrepreneurs Roundtable Accelerator, Amplifyher Ventures, Third Act Ventures, Maccabee Ventures, Gaingels, CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield, LifeBridge Health, UnitedHealth Group, UnitedHealthcare

Proud to share that Headspace has entered a multi-year partnership with the City of Hartford and the Copper Beech Institute to make the Headspace app available to all Hartford, CT residents, students, city employees, and Hartford Public Schools employees. This is a great example of our commitment to ensuring everyone has equitable and inclusive access to the lifelong support needed to take care of their mental health. We have a strong belief that private/public partnerships like this can be utilized to identify unmet social needs within a community and advance health equity for its residents. Huge thank you to the Headspace team that brought this to life Wizdom Powell,PhD, MPH, Katie DiPerna Cook, Alice Nathoo, and Véronique Prouhet Annerino among others! And added thanks to some of our key thought partners in this work: Patrick J. Kennedy Amy Kennedy Thomas Insel MD Pam Baer Joe Kennedy III Molly Coye. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gUfyYDic
