She has seizures twice a week and created a startup that promises to transform healthcare in Argentina

For years, Keila Barral Masri lived with seizures that appeared without warning and without any solid medical explanation. That long search for answers, which resulted in seven years without a diagnosis, exposed her to a system where data didn’t connect and clinical information was an incomplete puzzle. That experience, far from paralyzing her, led her to think about how to turn that personal struggle into a concrete solution.

The result was Cromodata, an Argentine startup that created Latin America’s first marketplace for de-identified health data. A platform that aims to change the way health information is analyzed, shared, and used. Its mission is ambitious: to improve diagnostics, drive research, accelerate medical technologies, and organize a historically fragmented ecosystem.
