Talking HealthTech: Soula in the Hot Seat With Pete

2021-11-13T15:30:01+11:00November 13, 2021|Blog, Media|

Soula joined pain organisations, forums and online groups and has told her story in the media and at conferences to help with pain management training and the establishment of great connections through her advocacy website pudendalnerve.com.au. But! Soula doesn't want to just keep repeating her story; our founder likes to inspire change! "I wanted to join a community that grasped creative communication, design and ideation relating to health. I wanted to be with conceptualists where ideas are produced and not measured (data, data, data… boring!)." In her attempts to implement PainTrain MHS formally into the healthcare industry, she found herself bumping into the Health Tech communities more and more. This is a world of movers and shakers, and one such community is Talking Healthtech (THT). THT was founded by Peter Birch. Peter worked in management roles in healthcare organisations for over 15 years; big ones and small ones, innovative startups and slow-moving beasts; he's seen all different kinds. Pete has experienced the exciting developments and the frustrating stagnation of all the ups and downs in health.
