Executive team
We are a dedicated and highly motivated team with complementary backgrounds in business, computer science and medicine, combining the right expertise to build solutions which will improve chronic patients' healthcare.
Medsensio was co-founded in 2017 by Anna Dranovska, Johan Ravn and Professor Lars Ailo Bongo from UiT. The startup was initially based on research results from the 7th edition of the population study in Tromsø.
In 2020, Medsensio and the PyXy.ai consortium was awarded funding by the European research and innovation fund, Horizon 2020. This allowed Medsensio to scale up the operations, adding Markus K. Johnsen to the executive team and adding more resources to the R&D teams.
Anna uses her background from business and innovation to oversee the management team, ensuring that all processes of the company are coordinated in a unified direction.
