  • Live from Apollo House: Building the Modern Health Stack in the Age of Superintelligence
    Jan 27 2026

    What does it really take to achieve Health Moonshots in the Age of Superintelligence?

    Recorded live at StartUp Health’s Apollo House during JPM Healthcare Week, this panel brings together leaders operating at the intersection of healthcare delivery, diagnostics, cloud infrastructure, and AI. Moderated by Angela Shippy, MD, of Amazon Web Services, the conversation explores how AI is moving from point solutions to foundational infrastructure across the modern health stack.

    Together, the panel examines why clean, connected data is essential, how agentic workflows can reduce burnout and improve clinician and patient experience, and what it will take to move healthcare from transactional to truly person-centered care. The discussion also tackles trust, governance, and why collaboration across startups, health systems, and big tech is critical to delivering real-world impact.

    This is a grounded, forward-looking conversation about how purpose-driven leadership can turn exponential technology into practical outcomes that matter.

    Behavioral health conditions are rising, providers are burned out, and primary care is carrying the load. In this episode, Unity Stoakes sit down with StartUp Health community member Indira Paharia, PsyD, CEO & Co-founder of VIBEcare, to explore how virtual, integrated behavioral health can transform care delivery at scale.

    Drawing on her experience as a clinical psychologist, payer executive, and health tech founder, Indira explains why primary care is the most powerful entry point for behavioral health and how VIBEcare is building practical solutions that actually fit into real-world workflows.

    In this episode, we cover:

    • The collaborative care model and why reimbursement changed everything

    • How virtual care removes barriers like stigma, transportation, and childcare

    • Addressing the national behavioral health provider shortage with scalable staffing models

    • What it takes to build solutions designed by clinicians, for clinicians

    • Why Indira is optimistic about the future of behavioral health access

    This conversation is a must-listen for founders, providers, payers, and health system leaders working to make behavioral health more accessible, effective, and human.
