With the current pandemic, hearing clinics have been forced to close leaving millions in a difficult position (hearing loss is the third most common chronic physical condition in the US after heart disease and arthritis). At Eargo, we rushed to launch free, remote hearing screenings and no-obligation consultations for anybody unable to get to a clinic, and established a hearing hotline for those in need to call.
Business in the age of a global pandemic is about partnering with like-minded companies and jointly helping those in need, and we are grateful to the NASDAQ for their support of what we are doing. In addition to highlighting Eargo's efforts on the iconic NASDAQ Tower, Nasdaq Global Markets reporter Jill Malandrino also interviewed Christian Gormsen, Eargo's CEO on Trade Talks.
