A critical conversation with Planet Hope

Cardiovascular disease is the biggest killer on the planet, claiming more than 30 million lives annually. It’s a horrifying statistic. One made even more so when you consider that all too often – especially with heart attacks – treatment could be as simple as taking an aspirin. If only the victim had more time to act.

Trials attract national attention

In recognition of the start of human trials for our hydration Microwearable sensor, WearOptimo has been the subject of a special 9 News feature.

Manufacturing project worth $3.9 million

We are very excited to share that WearOptimo has been awarded a $973,000 grant under the Australian Government’s Manufacturing Modernisation Fund (MMF) through the Department of Industry, Science, Energy and Resources.
