It’s not your fault, and you don’t have to wait for hope, it’s already here. That’s a message from today’s guest Virta Health CEO Sami Inkinen, the man on a mission to reverse diabetes in 100 million people. And guess what, he’s doing it. With a 60% success rate in type II diabetes, and an average weight loss success of 14 kilograms, Virta health is leveraging the power of data, AI and human expertise to maximum potential and changing people’s lives. If you are one of the millions and millions out there feeling hopeless, ashamed and given up on your chances of weight loss and diabetes success, stop whoever you are doing and listen to this potentially life changing 60 minutes.

Sami Inkinen is the Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Virta Health, the leader in type 2 diabetes reversal and creator of a new standard in medical care for people living with type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, or obesity. A data-driven technology entrepreneur, Sami's personal connection to diabetes and passion to advance health on a global scale was the motivation behind Virta Health and its innovative approach to diabetes care.

Previously, Inkinen was the co-founder of the leading online real estate marketplace Trulia, serving as its COO and president and board member until its IPO and eventual sale to Zillow Group. He also worked on Microsoft's strategy team for MS Office, and as a consultant for McKinsey & Company within the software, telecommunications, and government sectors.
