Founded in Melbourne, EVEDA is building one of the world's first fully integrated platforms of health hardware, software, solution delivery, analytics, and service solutions. Designed in Melbourne. Manufactured in Australia. Deployed across Oceania.
Our founder lost three close friends to undetected chronic conditions. They had access to one of the world's best healthcare systems. The system was not looking.
That failure became the founding question behind EVEDA: what if you could screen for the early indicators of chronic disease before they became emergencies? What if that screening was portable, affordable, and could happen wherever people already are, at work, in their community, in a remote clinic? And what if the results went directly to the patient and their doctor in minutes, not weeks?
EVEDA was built to change that. Not to replace the healthcare system, but to fill the structural gap that leaves chronic disease undetected until it becomes an emergency.
Healthcare systems around the world are designed around treatment, not prevention. Diagnostic pathways are fragmented, slow, and inaccessible for the communities that need them most.
EVEDA exists to change that. We built an integrated platform: device, software, patient access, and analytics, that delivers comprehensive health screening wherever care happens. From a corporate office in Sydney to a remote community in the Pacific Islands.
Our goal is not to replace the healthcare system. It is to fill the structural gaps that leave chronic disease undetected until it becomes an emergency.
EVEDA's management team combines deep expertise in health technology, commercial strategy, clinical operations, and global market development.
Zack Baala founded EVEDA after losing three close friends to undetected chronic conditions. Despite living in a country with universal healthcare, the system failed to identify their risks before it was too late. That experience drove him to build a platform that shifts healthcare from reactive treatment to proactive prevention.
With over 35 years of experience across technology and business, Zack leads EVEDA's vision in health and point-of-care solutions, driving advancements that bridge diagnostic hardware, clinical software, and population health analytics into one integrated ecosystem.
