Entrepreneur Reeve Benaron of Los Angeles is encouraging leaders, founders, and communities to support technology that expands healthcare access and empowers the next generation of innovators.

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESS Newswire / March 24, 2026 / Technology entrepreneur and healthtech leader Reeve Benaron is speaking out about the need for stronger innovation and collaboration in healthcare technology, urging founders, companies, and communities to prioritize solutions that improve access to diagnostics and support the next generation of innovators.

Benaron, co-founder and co-CEO of Intrivo Diagnostics and Chairman of AUDIENCEX, says recent global health challenges highlighted a major gap in how quickly healthcare systems can scale solutions during critical moments.

"Healthcare innovation often moves slowly," Benaron said. "But when the need is urgent, technology can help deliver solutions much faster. The challenge is making sure those solutions are accessible and scalable."

The conversation comes at a time when healthcare access remains a pressing issue. According to the World Health Organization, at least half of the world's population still lacks access to essential health services. In the United States alone, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that millions of Americans face barriers to routine healthcare services and diagnostic testing.

For Benaron, improving access to diagnostics and health technology is one of the most powerful ways to address that gap.

"Technology should solve real problems," he said. "If you combine bold thinking with disciplined execution, you can build things that change how industries work and how people experience healthcare."

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Benaron's company Intrivo helped organizations manage testing programs through the ON/GO Test to Trace platform, which was designed to help communities monitor and respond to outbreaks more efficiently.

The experience reinforced his belief that scalable digital platforms will play a growing role in healthcare delivery.

"When systems are built with data and accessibility in mind, they can help communities respond faster and more effectively," Benaron said. "We saw firsthand how technology could help organizations adapt in real time."

Beyond healthcare technology, Benaron is also encouraging entrepreneurs and business leaders to support mentorship and opportunity for young innovators. According to the U.S. Small Business Administration, startups account for nearly two-thirds of new job creation in the United States, yet many early-stage founders lack access to experienced mentors or industry networks.

Benaron believes those connections are critical.

"Mentorship can change someone's trajectory," he said. "Sometimes a single conversation can help a young founder see what's possible."

Born in Israel and raised in Los Angeles from the age of nine, Benaron credits his upbringing and early experiences in competitive sports for shaping his resilience and leadership style.

"Sports taught me mental toughness," he said. "You learn how to stay focused under pressure and keep going when things get difficult."

Today, his work spans entrepreneurship, venture investment, and philanthropy focused on healthcare innovation and youth mentorship.

Benaron often describes the principles that guide his career in three simple words: courage, clarity, and humanity.

"Courage means being willing to take risks," he said. "Clarity means focusing on what really matters. Humanity means building things that make life better for people."

What Individuals Can Do

Benaron encourages individuals, entrepreneurs, and communities to take simple steps to support innovation and healthcare access:

• Support organizations working to expand healthcare access in local communities

• Mentor students or early-stage founders interested in technology or healthcare innovation

• Stay informed about new health technologies that improve diagnostics and prevention

• Encourage responsible innovation that combines technology with real-world impact

"Progress doesn't only happen in boardrooms or labs," Benaron said. "It happens when people support ideas, mentor others, and stay engaged in solving real problems."
