About this event

As part of Startup Grind's Mental Health Month, we are excited to host Ashraf Bacheet, a digital health executive and serial entrepreneur with over 20 years of experience in building and scaling ventures across MENA. Ashraf is the Founder and former CEO of O7 Therapy, a leading digital mental health platform in the Middle East. Under his leadership, O7 Therapy grew from an idea to a regional scale, transforming the landscape of digital mental health in the region.

In this virtual fireside chat, Ashraf will share his entrepreneurial journey, from launching O7 Therapy to scaling it across MENA. He’ll discuss the intersection of technology and mental health, particularly how AI and personalized care are shaping the future of healthcare, and how Medicine 3.0 is transforming the way we approach mental wellbeing.

We’ll dive deep into topics such as the role of technology in mental health innovation, the challenges and opportunities in scaling healthtech startups, and the importance of building a preventative, personalized healthcare system. Ashraf will also reflect on his experiences as a mentor and public speaker, sharing insights on the regional startup ecosystem and how founders can leverage technology to make a real, lasting impact in mental health.

This event is part of Startup Grind’s global Mental Health Month initiative, where we’re joining forces with the global community to highlight founders and innovators who are shaping the future of mental health through technology. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, investor, or simply passionate about the future of healthtech, this fireside chat offers a unique opportunity to learn from one of the leading voices in digital health in MENA.
