If you surf for health advice digitally, you can probably assume a data broker is selling your information. One population might be at a lower risk, however: seniors, who rarely consult Dr. Google. Is digital health not serving a key population? Not exactly. For one, our portfolio company Honor raised a massive $42M Series B last week to take its senior caregiving platform to the next level.
ICYMI, we dove really deep into genomics and the state of digital health dollars recently. Kick your feet up and enjoy.
