Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of mortality worldwide, often exacerbated by limited access to healthcare facilities. In India, these diseases account for approximately 28% of all deaths. Sunfox Technologies, a Dehradun-based healthtech startup founded by Rajat Jain and Arpit Jain in August 2016, aims to change this narrative. Their journey was spurred by a personal tragedy when Rajat lost a friend to a sudden heart attack. “I hail from a rural background and have seen a lot of deaths due to unavailability of medical equipment for various reasons,” says Rajat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This experience drove Sunfox Technologies to develop healthcare solutions tailored to Indian conditions, focusing on portability, durability, and cost-effectiveness. Arpit emphasizes their mission: “Our addressable domain is to prevent life-threatening stages of diseases in patients living in the remotest locations through early monitoring by cost-effective and simple devices.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sunfox Technologies identified several gaps in the market. They observed that existing cardiac monitoring devices for last-mile users were costly, complex, inefficient, inadequate, inconvenient, and non-portable. Rajat explains their approach: “We are solving this global health challenge by providing accessible, simple, and affordable product innovation.”<\/p>\n\n\n
