Simon Carter is the creator of a unique software system called Predict BGL. Simon has type 1 diabetes and his daughter was also diagnosed with the disease at a young age. Frustrated by the primitive data collection methods and with his background in data analytics, Simon created a website so his daughters teachers could register her data in real time. He added an insulin dose calculator, then a future blood sugar prediction system. Eventually he offered the system to other parents of children with type 1 diabetes. They all loved it. This app now has over 7,000 users around the world.

At present, health information is only focused on individual patient records. But as the CTO of this startup points out, there is no point trying to manage sick people, if you don't have the hospital beds to put them in. JKM solutions are working on software that allows every care professional to see where hospital beds are available, in real time, from a simple web browser.
