Speaker

Kathrin Lehner

CoachFrog

Kathrin from Coachfrog is an inspiring and driven entrepreneur, having built an online platform that helps people to find the right practitioner for their individual health concerns in the secondary healthcare market.

Kathrin studied political sciences at Zurich University, and one of her main interests during her studies was the question around how to make the healthcare system more efficient. After graduating, she spent two years in product management and marketing, but continued to think about ways to improve the healthcare system for general public in Switzerland.

Kathrin and her team believe in the democratization of the healthcare system. They want consumers to be able to move to the center of their personal healthcare decisions, and Coachfrog aims to enable them to decide for themselves which kind of treatment they want to pursue.
