Roberta Sotomaior is the co-founder and CEO of Bloom Care, a Sao Paulo digital health platform for women and families that she built after walking away from a career in international diplomacy. She spent roughly six years studying conflict resolution in Boston, decided prevention beat firefighting, and turned that conviction into a B2B2C company now embedded as a corporate benefit at hundreds of Brazilian employers including Natura, Sanofi and SulAmerica. She raised a R$3M pre-seed in 2021, drew angel checks from the presidents and ex-CEOs of Novartis and Gympass, and made CB Insights' global list of promising digital health startups as the only one founded entirely by women.
