In this episode of Medsider Radio, we had an interesting chat with Sumit Nagpal, founder and CEO of Cherish Health, a company developing radar-based health and safety monitoring devices.

Over the past three decades, serial entrepreneur and digital health veteran Sumit has co-founded and grown five companies that have tackled some of the boldest challenges faced by the healthcare economy. He also serves on the board of HIMSS and chairs the Nominating Committee.

In this interview, Sumit shares his take on the importance of being stage-appropriate—both mentally and business-wise—and how to recognize patterns in the market by simply listening. Oh - and constantly learn from others because, as Steve Jobs paraphrasing Picasso put it, “great artists steal.”
