Carenity
Past and future
Their story
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.
