She focused on improving care for children with temporary hearing loss due to glue ear (a common condition, where fluid builds up behind the ear drum, causing temporary deafness in young children), by creating an affordable medical device to improve hearing as well as an app called Hear Glue Ear, to improve childhood developmental skills and to empower children/ families to self manage glue ear between appointments or when operations (known as grommet- insertion operations or tympanostomy tube operations) are unavailable. The device and the app won several awards, including ‘Children’s app of the year’at UK app awards and NICE ‘highly commended’ the app. Collaboration with Raspberry Pi and the National Deaf Childrens Society strengthened the product and kept it affordable for families. 🚨 About our host - Naily Makangu 🚨 Software Engineer turned “The Mary Poppins of Startups”, Naily Makangu has a gift for bridging the gap between tech teams and the rest of the business to deliver solutions that customers love.
