Profile

Dr. Wei transitioned from a top medical student, graduating with honors (MBBS) from Monash University in 1995, to a trailblazing medical inventor pioneering disruptive and transformative platforms around the world.

Over two decades ago, Dr Wei invented the first wireless contraception in Tokyo, Japan, to help women activate self-care and self-empowerment. In 2002, Dr Wei was invited by the Dutch Health Promotion Board to develop a big data solution that will help the government correlate increasing youth health issue trends with the country’s first introduction of digital youth education. He also collaborated with Singapore’s Health Promotion Board to address the country's declining birth rate. Dr. Wei's work has earned him numerous international accolades, including being the youngest nominee for CNN’s People’s Choice Award in 2003.

Over 15 years ago, Dr Wei founded Borderless Healthcare Group which started an investment in consumer-centric healthcare companies and has now become a global leader in the healthcare technology, media, telecommunication, service and content (TMTSC) space. Dr Wei continues to develop his vision from the digital and media space to now ‘connected’ online-to-offline health and wellness services via cloud computing with projects including technology-enabled wellness resorts, health and wellness metaverse and many other initiatives which are featured in numerous global international media.

Dr Wei is also recognized as a highly-regarded keynote speaker in major international conferences globally such as Slush, BIOMED Israel and World Medical Tourism and is also one of the most sought-after key opinion leaders in disruptive healthcare consumerism by global organizations and institutions such as United Nations, World Health Organization, Stanford University, Oxford University, Renmin University and many others.
