Esmeralda Megally is the CEO and co-founder of Xsensio. Having worked in the US on the launch of a new Investment Fund backed by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, she found her entrepreneurship call in Switzerland.

Xsensio is a Swiss startup, a spinoff from the Nanolab at EPFL that develops Lab-on-Skin. It’s a medical-grade wearable that tracks biochemical information for continuous remote monitoring of patients at risk – sepsis for the start. But there's way more to come.
