After leaving his role as Managing Director and Global Lead, Digital Health Strategy at Accenture (a global consultancy), Sumit Nagpal founded Cherish in 2020. He’s held the office of CEO since the company was founded and has also assumed the role of Chairman earlier in 2022.
Why They Made the Worthy 100: Cherish health uses cutting-edge technology to help the elderly live better lives. By combining sensor tech with artificial intelligence, Cherish can combine its solution with human caregivers providing the elderly with the best of both types of care, especially those living with health challenges like infirmity, a lack of mobility, or dementia, and help them live longer with more independence, dignity, and joy wherever they may choose to live. Cherish’s impact began early, when In 2020 it entered a partnership with Veterans of America to mitigate the long-term effects of COVID- 19 on elderly veterans. Cherish has now partnered with leading consumer and healthcare companies to bring this life-changing technology to market.
