Vik Sharma is the founder of MiraKare, a health-tech startup that empowers families caring for loved ones with rare and complex medical needs.

As a caregiver for over 20 years, Vik knows firsthand how overwhelming and fragmented the caregiving journey can be. MiraKare was born from that experience to give caregivers clarity, confidence, and connection through data-driven insights that help them move from reacting to anticipating care needs.

The platform combines wearable health data, caregiver observations, and AI to create a shared understanding between families, clinicians, and researchers, turning lived experiences into meaningful, real-world evidence that can improve care and fuel innovation.

Before founding MiraKare, Vik spent over two decades in the pharmaceutical industry, where he led digital innovation and built collaboration technologies that connected global teams and accelerated problem-solving. Today, he brings that same systems mindset to caregiving, building bridges between the people who live the data and those who can learn from it.

At its core, MiraKare empowers families, clinicians, and researchers to work together, using real-world data and lived experiences to improve care and accelerate discoveries. For Vik, this isn’t just innovation—it’s personal.
