# Bruno Van Tuykom

> Bruno Van Tuykom is the co-founder and CEO of Twentyeight Health, a New York digital-care company built around a difficult operating premise: online convenience should reach people who use Medicaid, lack insurance, or live far from traditional services. An electrical engineer by training and a former Boston Consulting Group principal, he spent eight years at BCG, including four years supporting Gates Foundation work on access to care, before launching Twentyeight Health with Amy Fan in 2018. The company later absorbed patient assets from SimpleHealth and part of The Pill Club, crossed 100,000 users, and raised a $10 million Series A in 2025; in 2026 it announced partnerships with Oura and Clue.
