70. Harpreet Singh Rai, CEO of Oura

Today I’m joined by Harpreet Singh Rai, CEO of Oura — makers of a

In this episode, we talk about the evolution of wearables from
step counting to health monitoring. We discuss Oura’s focus on
accurate, actionable data. And Harpreet explains why he thinks
competition from Apple, Amazon, and Google is actually a good
thing.
