The story of MedicubeX started when co-founders Heikki Rautajoki and Vili Kostamo first met in a joint Academy of Finland – University of Helsinki – HUS–VTT research project for non-invasive diabetes screening in 2016. Two years later in 2018 – inspired by the possibilities of noninvasive testing – several discussions on emerging retail clinics followed which would later lead the way to the establishment of MedicubeX. The founders explored the field of autonomous, non-invasive health kiosks and potential tech contributors in Europe, seeing the beginnings of a rising trend.
In March 2020, the startup was founded after three years of preparation, with Vili Kostamo as the CEO.
Graduated in 2021 as an MD from the University of Helsinki, Kostamo has already done clinical work in multiple different environments.
