We meet Megan Lam, co-founder of Neurum Health.
“I only do mental health. This is the core theme of my life. I can’t do anything else,” Megan Lam says of her work. She is joking, but it is also the truth. Lam, 32, is the co-founder of Neurum Health, a B2B company that specialises in digital mental health through artificial intelligence and machine learning. Its goal, she says, is to provide personalised mental-health support for the workforce.
“From losing family members to suicide and from my own struggles,” she says, “I was just desperate to find a way for every person to get the right mental-health support that meets them exactly where they are.”
Lam recently stepped down as CEO of Neurum Health and as interim executive director of youth mental health NGO KELY Support Group, to focus on her own health and well-being.
“I have to walk the walk,” she says.
The Yale alumna jumped from a research fellowship at the American university’s School of Medicine into entrepreneurship to start Neurum Health in 2018. Five years later, she was chosen as a fellow of the Cartier Women’s Initiative, earning an Impact Award for her work.
