Featuring Steven Gutentag, co-founder of Keeps and Afton Vechery, co-founder of Modern Fertility.

Our fourth episode explores how startups are cleverly shaking up the $3 trillion US healthcare industry with a convenient, tech-driven, and consumer-friendly approach. New players are finding ways to disrupt the consumer experience by introducing on-demand services and affordable solutions. As growth in the health and wellness space extends into every aspect of our lives, consumers are turning to companies that can help them actively focus on prevention rather than cure in every lifestyle vertical.
