Dr Rebecca Allam, an experienced haematologist with over a decade in patient care, identified a critical gap in prehabilitation—rehabilitation before surgery and its impact on patient outcomes. Recognising the potential of technology to address this issue, she founded PreActiv, offering dynamic, individualised prehabilitation programmes.
As Co-Founder and CEO, Rebecca has successfully positioned PreActiv as a leader in the prehabilitation space, driving innovation and social impact. In 2023 Rebecca won the prestigious Women in Innovation award, cementing her role as a female leader in health tech. Passionate about breaking barriers for women in technology, she actively champions diversity and inclusion in the sector.
Rebecca has also secured placements in highly competitive accelerator programs, such as Digital Health London and Bethnal Green Ventures, further strengthening PreActiv’s reach and impact. With a unique blend of medical expertise and entrepreneurial vision, she continues to push the boundaries of digital health, transforming patient care and prehabilitation.
