Sumit is a serial entrepreneur focused on digital health innovation at scale. Over the past three decades, he has co-founded and grown five companies that have tackled progressively bolder challenges facing our healthcare economies.
All his work features common themes — a big, bold vision that helps us imagine a better world moonshot technology innovation that disrupts how things have been to create how they can be complexity designed out of user experiences to blend into people’s daily lives so we can get on with ours and business models that make such change practical — themes he has honed since the time Sumit worked with Steve Jobs and NeXT in the early 1990s.
Sumit is now Chairman and CEO and the founder of Cherish. Cherish develops advanced radar-based sensor platforms and artificial intelligence that revolutionize health and safety monitoring wherever people live, work, or play. The company’s patented spatial computing technology works ambiently (through the air) without changing how people live and by prioritizing their privacy. Cherish detects emergencies and health and safety risks to bring people timely help so they and their loved ones may live better with more independence, safety, and peace of mind.
Sumit also serves on the HIMSS board and is Chair of the HIMSS Nominating Committee. He is a lifelong learner and is sought after for his expertise and unstoppable energy as a visionary serial entrepreneur, bold strategist, innovative technologist, and courageous change agent.
