About Ahmed Hessam
Ahmed Hessam is CEO and Founder of OSAA Innovation – Copenhagen-based medtech company revolutionising infusion therapy solutions in healthcare. Founded in 2016, OSAA Innovation aims to address the stigma surrounding patients undergoing IV treatments and as well the overall lack of progressive technological solutions within the IV healthcare industry.
The company is also a multiple winner of national and international entrepreneurial and product design awards. Among the recent remarkable recognitions is the Gold Winner Accolade from the Australian Good Design Awards.
Ahmed has always shown a keen interest and curiosity in devising smart solutions for often overlooked areas. This inspired him to obtain an Industrial designer degree from the Zealand Academy of Technologies and Business (Denmark) and became the starting point of his entrepreneurship journey.
Throughout his youth, Ahmed has been a long-term patient, experiencing the healthcare system firsthand and shaping his understanding of patient needs. The inspiration for the company core product iV-GO® essentially came during one of Ahmed’s hospitalizations where he saw a young girl playing outside while her mother struggled to carry her IV bag. Frustrated by the limitations imposed on patients by traditional IV bags and poles, Ahmed sought to create a solution.
In 2009, merging his passions for design, engineering, technology, and business, Ahmed, got a visionary idea that would change the landscape of infusion therapy. Ahmed created the first prototype of iV-GO® – a lightweight and portable 100% mechanical device that stands out for its unique feature – it allows patients to be mobile during treatments. Since then recognizing the challenges faced by patients, nurses and doctors, Ahmed kept working on his concept which laid the groundwork for the establishment of OSAA Innovation in 2016.
Stepping further, Ahmed has been dedicated to creating solutions that empower and destigmatize patients undergoing infusion therapy. With the help of iV-GO® mechanical infusion pump and the other products within the OSAA Innovation’s ecosystem, he is committed to building a future in healthcare where patients can maintain their dignity and experience the unparalleled patient-centered care, while the industry can focus on enhancing the patients’ results and avoid the unnecessary financial burdens associated with traditional IV delivery systems.
