Biography

Maree Beare is the founder and CEO of Wanngi, a Brisbane based startup that has developed a multi-platform mobile web app to empower people with their own health and wellness information.

Maree is passionate about using innovative technology to positively impact the lives of others. She is renowned as a forward-thinking leader in the technology sector, with extensive experience advising many of Australia’s leading organisations in transforming their businesses and delivering high-profile technology programs.

Maree realised that Australians are disconnected from their health information, and a mobile application that empowers them and their doctor to make informed decisions about their wellbeing was desperately needed in the market.

Imagine a future where, no matter where you are in the world, you and your doctor will have access to your health information. Wanngi is attempting to solve the problem where people have incomplete access to their health information. The impact is they don't have it on hand to self-monitor, to help themselves communicate to their doctors, and improve their chances of being diagnosed.

Her work with Wanngi has been recognised by Forbes in the top 50 women-led startups disrupting HealthTech, and CNET, showing the Australian company is becoming a growing influence in the digital health sector.She was also named in the top 100 Women in Wearables for 2019. Ms Beare exemplifies the values of Wanngi through her authentic vision for the company, as she builds a diverse team focused on integrity and innovation.

Wanngi is an app designed to give people control over their health as well as help them manage their health easier. We want people to be their own health Champion. With Wanngi you can track and manage your symptoms, injuries, medications, allergies, immunizations and fitness progress and goals.
