"Eko harnesses AI to unlock universal access to expert-level cardiac and pulmonary disease detection for patients everywhere," - Connor Landgraf, CEO and co-founder of Eko Health.
He likened Eko’s innovation to the transformation brought by Ring in home security systems, emphasizing that Eko has reinvented the traditional stethoscope into a powerful early disease detection tool.
Cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases remain leading causes of death worldwide, highlighting the urgency for early detection tools. Many patients remain unaware of their risk factors due to limited access to effective detection technologies.
Eko Health aims to bridge this gap by integrating its detection capabilities into various physical exams globally, from primary care in the U.S. to maternal-fetal health exams in Nigeria.
Vas Bailey, PhD, Chair of the Board at Eko Health and Partner at ARTIS Ventures, shared his personal connection to the cause, expressing his commitment to the mission.
"Like countless others, I lost a parent much too early to undetected heart disease. I am deeply inspired by the team's dedication to saving lives by equipping clinicians worldwide with our groundbreaking early detection platform."
The new capital will enable Eko Health to deepen its U.S. presence and accelerate expansion into key international markets.
This will be supported by new strategic investments from Double Point Ventures in the U.S., Singapore-based global investor EDBI, and LG Technology Ventures from South Korea.
With these resources, Eko Health is poised to enhance access to its AI-enabled cardiac and pulmonary disease detection platform, ultimately improving patient outcomes on a global scale.
