Mark Burrell - Who’s Caring for the Carers?


Listen Later

In this episode of Funded Futures, Emily Macfarlane sits down with Mark Burrell, Founder and CEO of AiCarer, a predictive wellness and safety platform built to support families caring for ageing or vulnerable loved ones.

Born from Mark’s personal experience as a carer, AiCarer uses everyday wearables and proprietary AI to detect early changes in wellbeing — before a crisis occurs. The technology is already gaining traction with Carers Queensland, Garmin Health, and major insurers, and is now scaling across Australia and into the UK.

Mark shares how a deeply personal challenge inspired him to create a solution that empowers carers, reduces hospitalisations, and restores dignity for millions of people ageing at home.
