Arab Health 2025: Myri Health Is Leading the Future of Maternal Care
If Arab Health 2025 proved anything, it’s this: maternal health is no longer an afterthought—it’s the future of healthcare.
For too long, maternal care has been treated as secondary, an afterthought in health systems that prioritize everything else first. But this year, the conversation shifted. The urgency, the demand, the recognition—it was all there. And Myri Health was at the center of it.
When we launched Myri, we weren’t just creating a solution; we were building a movement. Because moms deserve more. More than checklists. More than fragmented care. More than a system that fails to meet them where they are. They need continuous, personalized support—something that understands them, anticipates their needs, and walks with them through every step of pregnancy and postpartum.
At Arab Health, we saw this vision resonate across continents. We met with hospital executives, policymakers, and global investors, all eager to explore Myri’s impact in their own systems. They weren’t just interested in innovation; they were looking for real, implementable change. Because the reality is: moms make up 50 percent of the population and birth 100 percent of the future—the least we can do is build care that actually cares.
Myri at the Center of Change
Healthcare has been operating in silos for too long, leaving moms to fall through the cracks. Myri is changing that. We’re not just another healthtech company—we’re the infrastructure maternal care has been missing.
At Arab Health, we engaged with some of the most influential healthcare leaders in the world—stakeholders eager to implement a smarter, more connected maternal health system. The consensus was clear: maternal healthcare isn’t just overdue for disruption; it’s essential for the future of global health.
And Myri is leading that transformation.

One of the most powerful moments of the conference was the EmpowerHER panel, where our founder and CEO, Dr. Pinkey Patel, joined a dynamic conversation on what it really takes to build meaningful solutions as a woman in healthcare.
Sitting alongside industry leaders Madji Sock (Co-Founder and President at Haskè Ventures), Maya Ghosn Bichara (Operating Partner at Bridge Builders Collaborative), and moderator Susan Amat, PhD (Director of Entrepreneurship Initiatives at the University of Miami Herbert Business School), Dr. Patel spoke candidly about the realities of being a female founder in healthtech.
Women aren’t just patients in healthcare—we are the architects of its future. Yet, funding for women’s health remains an afterthought. Leadership opportunities for female founders continue to be harder to access. And maternal care is still treated as optional. It’s not. It never was.
This wasn’t just another panel on women in leadership. It was an open, unfiltered conversation about the systemic barriers in healthcare and the work that remains to be done.

Innov8 Start-Up Competition: Proving Maternal Health Is the Future of Healthcare
Being named a Top 5 Finalist in the Innov8 Start-Up Competition was a proof of what we’ve been saying all along.
Maternal health isn’t secondary. This trillion-dollar industry can’t be ignored any longer. Investors, insurers, and healthcare leaders are finally recognizing that maternal health isn’t just about impact—it’s an untapped market with massive growth potential.
Standing on that stage as the only female-led company sent a clear message. The judges—seasoned investors and healthcare experts—asked the tough questions, and we delivered the answers:
• Why Myri?
Because we’re not just supporting moms—we’re enabling entire systems to do better.
• How does Myri close gaps?
By preventing complications, personalizing care, and ensuring no mother navigates this journey alone.
• Why now?
Because the world is finally ready to invest in what should have been standard decades ago.
Maternal health is the future of healthcare. Arab Health made that clear.
We’re Not Here to Join the Conversation. We’re Here to Lead It.
Arab Health wasn’t just another conference for us—it was proof of what we’ve known all along:
• Maternal health is at the center of global healthcare transformation.
• Hospitals and healthcare systems are desperate for a smarter, more connected approach to pregnancy and postpartum care.
• Investors are realizing that maternal health isn’t just an ethical investment—it’s an economic one.
We left Arab Health with new partnerships, bigger conversations, and a clear path forward for global expansion. The momentum is real. The demand is urgent. The industry is catching up to what we’ve always known:
Maternal health is the future of healthcare. And, we’re the ones building it.
