EIT CHANGE Award winner 2016 wins InnovatorsRace50

Another 2016 EIT Award winner scores success!

Hippogriff of Sweden won in the Consumers & Well-Being category of the Capgemini InnovatorsRace50. As reported on the Capgemini website, Allen Ali Mohammadi, Co-founder & CEO of Hippogriff, said:

'We are thrilled and grateful that "Hippogriff AB" is recognized as one of the most innovative start-ups in the world! This award will certainly contribute to realizing our vision of saving at least 1 million lives each year. Thanks Capgemini for the vote of confidence.'

In 2016, Allen won the EIT CHANGE Award for his Complex Disease Detector, an accurate, non-invasive and inexpensive tool for the screening and early diagnosis of heart diseases. It uses a patient’s medical data and offers a decision support tool to doctors, while also helping patients to discover if they suffer from heart disease, even if they show no symptoms.
