Pair of podcasts
WearOptimo has been in good company lately, featuring on two quite varied Australian podcasts – MTPConnect and Fear & Greed.
Media spotlight: Handy tool for tradies
Summer in Australia can be a nightmare, especially for workers such as tradies, whose jobs may involve spending significant time outside in sweltering temperatures.
Media spotlight: A conversation about opportunity
WearOptimo CEO and founder Professor Mark Kendall has long seen the opportunities in challenge, such as launching a healthtech business in Brisbane, rather than in a more traditional locale such as Silicon Valley or Geneva. This made it a perfect theme on which to expand when he was interviewed for the Engineers Australia online news hub Create.

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.
