We are thrilled to announce that our two innovative startup companies, Qawam and MOBiSENSE, participated in LEAP2024, showcasing their cutting-edge products and services. Qawam, known for its groundbreaking posture correction solutions, has now developed an app that utilizes sensors from Apple Airpods. This app eliminates the need for a separate clip-on device, providing consumers with a more convenient and seamless posture correction experience.
