Founder & President of Eimageglobal
As a graduate in Biomedical Engineering from Southeast University as well as Clinical Medicine from Nanjing Medical University, Chai Xueting has always been aware of the issues plaguing the traditional medical imaging system. The exorbitant cost of archiving past records and the lack of a comprehensive medical image sharing system between hospitals for a fully effective diagnosis have long raised concerns in his mind. But it was while taking his young daughter to the hospital for a health checkup, personally experiencing these issues, that Chai became ever more determined to build a cloud-based medical system – hence his founding of Eimageglobal. In 2017, Chai won the “Young Tech Giant” Award by Zhejiang Entrepreneur Committee.
