Board Observer

“The Decorte team have built a market differentiator product that will transform the healthtech landscape. Integrating with existing infrastructure, their engine can identify and monitor alignments, resulting in efficient data collection as well as early detection and intervention. I personally believe this team is extremely talented and will generate substantial revenue.”

“I saw Roeland for the first time on the BBC and was immediately struck by their personality and character and passion for what they were building. As we were getting feedback from external assessors and people who were looking at the pitches, I got a number of messages saying we would be insane not to invest in this company. And I agreed - I have been writing and tweeting and talking about the need for this kind of tech for ages.”

Investor

”I am truly excited by the nature of the technology the Decorte team is building, which I believe is unique in its field in terms of depth and execution. That is why I’m investing, and why I am currently actively supporting their clinical studies and expansion into the US”

Founder Heart and Vascular Clinics Newark, Middletown and Wilmington, American College of Cardiology, American Heart Association, American College of Physicians

Chair, Clinical Advisory Board

“I’ve calculated that Decorte’s technology would save the average patient of my clinics roughly $20K in clinical and hospitalisation costs, per patient, and optimise clinic workflows about 15-30%, all without mentioning the vastly better outcomes for patients. I am excited to host and help run Decorte’s US-based clinical studies so that their technology can become available to the tens of thousands of patients my clinics serve.
