Steve Xu
Steve Xu is a board-certified dermatologist turned medtech founder who runs Sibel Health, the Chicago company commercializing ICU-grade wearable sensors that now monitor patients in more than 20 countries. A physician-engineer trained at Rice, Harvard, and the London School of Economics, he splits his life between the clinic, the lab at Northwestern's Querrey Simpson Institute for Bioelectronics, and a startup chasing a single line: Better Health Data for All.
Eric Dy
Eric Dy, PhD is the co-founder and CEO of Bloomlife, a San Francisco-based women's health company building connected care solutions for maternal and fetal monitoring. A biomedical engineer by training (Cornell BSc, UCLA MSc and PhD), Dy spent four years at IMEC - Europe's leading R&D institute - establishing 17 partnerships worth $25M+ in revenue before launching Bloomlife in 2014. His personal experience watching his wife navigate a high-risk pregnancy - gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, placental complications, preterm labor, and a son who spent his first month in the NICU - drove him to attack the most underserved gap in American healthcare. Bloomlife's FDA-cleared MFM-Pro wearable lets high-risk pregnant patients be monitored at home, replacing the endless clinic visits that define the current broken system. The company raised a $12.2M Series A in September 2024 and has secured reimbursement across 18 payers.
