In February 2022, Francesca Domenech founded Nen, a platform to help kids with cancer, which affects 500,000 children all over the world. Focused on fun, the solution tackles pain management and assesses, treats and provides ongoing information based on the path the kids take on the platform.
The solution also hopes to provide comprehensive services for the families, where they can learn about pain management, emotional support and management tools, and get information on how the children are progressing. Plus, it features a personalized clinical trial search engine.
