About the team: 

The New Ventures area is at the forefront of innovation, dedicated to pioneering new ventures and developing cutting-edge solutions that generate new revenue streams. Right now, a key focus of our efforts is establishing a cohesive noa.ai ecosystem. 

One of our flagship initiatives is Noa Notes - A solution designed to automate the creation of clinical notes during patient consultations.
