In this episode of Med Tech Gurus, we sit down with Professor Mark Kendall, Founder & CEO of WearOptimo and one of the world\u2019s most visionary biomedical innovators. A former rocket scientist turned medtech pioneer, Mark has already transformed vaccine delivery with groundbreaking platforms like PowderJet and Vaxxas. Now, he\u2019s doing it again \u2014 this time with a revolutionary micro-wearable sensor designed to pull high-fidelity biosignals directly from the skin without painful needles or invasive hardware.   Mark explains how WearOptimo\u2019s sticker-like microneedle patch, built using cutting-edge manufacturing techniques that scale to tens of millions of units, is redefining what wearables can do. The first target? Hydration monitoring \u2014 solving a problem so widespread it quietly reduces life expectancy and affects elite athletes, surgical outcomes, and everyday health. From scalable manufacturing and AI-enabled biomarker intelligence, to building elite teams and navigating fundraising, Mark delivers powerful lessons on innovation, leadership, and building technologies that truly matter.  If you\u2019re passionate about the future of wearable medicine, platform technology, and designing solutions that actually reach the real world, this conversation is one you won\u2019t want to miss.
