Carenity

Carenity was founded in 2011 by Michael Chekroun. Faced with the lack of information about a relative's illness, Michael created Carenity, the first online patient community in Europe.

In June 2023, Lise took over the leadership and presidency of Carenity. Today, Carenity has over 500,000 registered members on the platform (patients and relatives of patients), and is available in 6 countries: France, the United States, the United Kingdom, Spain, Italy, and Germany.

Its business model? Through online surveys, Carenity allows its clients (industries, doctors, researchers, patient associations) to better understand patients' expectations in order to develop better treatments and services.

The three main challenges for Carenity in the coming years are:

• Continuing to grow our communities to remain one of the leading patient communities in the world with more than 1,200 referenced pathologies and 5 languages.
• Evolving our product based on the expectations of our users and the uses of social networks.
• Developing our scientific excellence.

Carenity is committed to creating a caring and inclusive working environment where individual differences are respected and valued.

We are also taking steps to reduce our carbon footprint on a daily basis.
