Resilience, noun: Ability to grow and live despite traumatic circumstances.

Initiated by two tech entrepreneurs, Céline Lazorthes and Jonathan Benhamou, Resilience was born out of an emergency: the need to put an end to inequalities in access to medicine, which are particularly tangible for cancer patients. This urgency turned into an ambition: to reinvent the way cancer is treated through digital technology.

Alongside Gustave Roussy (the 5th largest oncology research centre in the world) and its experts, Resilience strives to provide the best possible care for people who have encountered cancer on their way. This opens the door to a more personal medicine, more concerned with the uniqueness of each individual — better care for better lives.

Improving patients’ quality of life is Resilience’s core mission. Launched in 2021, the Resilience Care mobile application is supporting patients through personalised symptom monitoring and a library of reliable content to help them understand and soothe treatment-related pain.

The ambition of Resilience is to change the way cancer is managed. Intended to recreate the link between patients and health professionals, a complete solution is being provided to care teams: a powerful tool for remote patient monitoring.
