Tracking Health in Aging Populations in South Korea with Fibion – Steve Seo

"How can advanced health monitoring devices support an aging population?" In this insightful episode, Dr. Olli Tikkanen sits down with Steve Seo, a biomedical engineer and CEO from South Korea, to discuss the role of wearable technology in healthcare, especially as populations age. Steve shares his journey from aspiring to be a doctor to working in biomedical engineering and explains how wearable devices like Fibion are helping to track and improve physical activity, sleep, and heart health. With South Korea's rapidly aging population, the demand for innovative health solutions is growing, and Steve emphasizes the importance of easy-to-use devices that fit seamlessly into daily life.

The conversation explores cultural differences in technology adoption, including preferences for wrist-worn devices over other placements, and the role of AI in advancing healthcare solutions. Steve highlights the need for translated, user-friendly health reports and how South Korea’s tech-savvy culture is rapidly embracing digital health tools. This episode is perfect for anyone interested in the intersection of wearable technology and healthcare for aging populations.
