Hubbub World

Personal real-time health and safety guidance platform that automatically monitors and alerts relevant public health, environmental and travel information, including for COVID-19

As the world recovers from the current Covid-19 pandemic, citizens are contending with a medical and economic infodemic that requires rapid evaluation of the personal relevance of public health and safety updates and use of new tools and techniques such as vaccine passports. While many of these tools and techniques have a short term pandemic recovery focus, the underlying data and technology could also allow for a reimagineering of how society operates. 

4 Billion people today have a smartphone with >80% daily use of app-enabled workflows in advanced economies. Over the next 4 quarters as life returns to normalcy across the world, numerous "Can I do this again now?" and "How do I do this now?" questions will be part of everyday work, school, travel, dining, entertainment and family activities. 

Hubbub helps users navigate this new world and extend their new learnings to more frictionless workflows in the future.

Hubbub is a personal productivity solution for simplifying post-pandemic life. The solution readily connects with a base that leverages social media and mobile apps for engaged users that will seed our mobile app experience. 

One key innovation we at Hubbub want to realize are Social Health Records –  health data that is of relevance to public sourced not only from the exiting health infrastructure but also from users of our platform. 

Social Health Records in conjunction with Electronic Health Records and Personal Health Records could redefine our responsiveness and resilience in future social safety hazards whether pandemics, climate change consequences or civil disturbances. 

Our immediate focus for 2021 is the US office workers and gig workers returning back to work and activities like events and travel. If we can get more citizens to get vaccinated in 2Q21 and more citizens to attend events and travel in 2H21, Hubbub would be an enormous value addition to US and global recovery from the pandemic.

Our Vaccination advocacy tool is a low-friction step for this quarter.

The mobile apps integrated with Vaccine passports and the pandemic data tools will enable return to office, events and travel in a safe and data driven experience.

Our focus for the next year is on providing a personal productivity solution for for pandemic recovery which could shave off minutes of information searching and worrying daily from millions of minds. 

If we are successful with this we would have created the infrastructure for Social Health Records (SHR) which would enable us to drive new healthcare models over the coming years.

Realizing SHR in advanced economies would also allow us to extend it to emerging economies in the years ahead.

Our solution has a series of personal data services that span from anonymous transactional to anonymous groups to identifiable individual to identifiable group use. 

The number of unique users that touch these services and their frequency of use are the best indicators of our social impact.

The transactions volume on our enterprise solution would be the best indicator of our economic impact.

We are working on building out an advisory panel of public health and socio-economic impact thought leaders. This is what brought us to Trinity Challenge. These include members of the MIT-Harvard data science and medicine community.
