DESIGNED FOR SCALE: THE HEALTH TECH GROWTH PODCAST

Ep4. How Clean Slate scaled its mission from Australia to the UK

Clean Slate is a social enterprise on a mission to tear down barriers to addiction treatment. We talk to Pia about building a values-driven business in one of healthcare's most stigmatised spaces, why their 7% relapse rate is actually a harder sell to some investors than you'd think, and what it really takes to go from accidental founder to closing a Series A.

Ep3. The partnership strategy behind Tandem's fast UK growth

Tandem, a leading AI medical assistant, has seen incredible growth since launching in 2024. In our conversation with Co-Founder Oscar Boldt-Christmas he breaks down the Day 1 mentality that made that growth possible, why feature expansion needs to be carefully managed, and what his background at McKinsey taught him that helped them tell investors a compelling story.

Ep2. How MUTU grew a women's health brand without VC backing

MUTU is the NHS-trusted core and pelvic floor programme, but it's growing into something much bigger.

We chat to CEO Wendy Powell about how she bootstrapped MUTU into a global movement, without VC investment, the benefits of US market vs NHS, and MUTU's move from postnatal recovery to perimenopause, not to mention how the likes of Kate Middleton and P!NK are involved!

Ep1. How Paxman scaled a med tech device from NHS to 65 countries

We sit down with Richard, CEO of pioneering medtech company Paxman Scalp Cooling, to hear how purpose helped them scale to 150+ people, about the acquisition of their biggest competitor that they said would never happen, and whether growth is easier in the US or UK.
