What does it take to walk away from managing $700 billion in global partnerships, and bet everything on a problem most people pretend isn't there?
Tiffany Hart did exactly that.
In this episode of the Particle Accelerator Podcast, Ben sits down with Tiffany, former World Economic Forum executive, Harvard-trained strategist, and founder of Connection Care AI, to talk about the $30B silent crisis in American healthcare, senior isolation and preventable cognitive decline.
They go deep on:
- Why 16 million seniors living alone is a tech market nobody is building for
- How Connection Care AI works, and why it was designed around the grumpy senior, not the friendly one
- The LOI structure that converts to paid contracts after beta (and 150 units already deployed across 3 states)
- Four revenue streams: B2B facility contracts, B2C family subscriptions, anonymized medical data, and memory books
- Why Alexa, Google Nest, and Apple Watch have all failed seniors, and what that opens up
- The ethical boundaries her team built in before writing a single line of code
- What every CEO drowning in AI hype needs to hear right now
This is a masterclass in building a mission-driven company in an overlooked market, with real pre-revenue validation and a sharp go-to-market strategy.
