From Kırşehir to the World: Duru Zaman Builds Connections Across Healthcare and Technology
With roots in Kırşehir, Türkiye, and a focus on international healthcare collaboration, Duru Zaman is working to address a practical challenge: helping patients, clinicians and institutions turn information and clinical intent into a completed care journey. Zaman, founder of Durumed Care, was recently featured in a “20 Health Tech Founders Worth Following” roundup shared by Godsent Ndoma. The list brings together entrepreneurs working across diagnostics, artificial intelligence, virtual care, precision medicine and healthcare infrastructure. Durumed Care was highlighted for its focus on coordinated, connected care journeys. For Zaman, healthcare innovation depends on what happens after a technology is introduced. Her work centers on connecting hospital operations, clinical workflows, institutional relationships and patient needs so that promising solutions can be implemented effectively.
“Healthcare systems don’t fail because of a lack of data. They fail when patients, clinicians and institutions cannot consistently complete the care journey,” Zaman explains in her professional profile.
Through Durumed Care, she works across healthcare market development, hospital engagement, institutional partnerships, patient journey design, localisation and pilot coordination. Her approach draws on hands-on hospital experience and direct exposure to healthcare operations, giving her insight into the gaps between a technology’s capabilities and its use in everyday care.
Zaman also contributes to Robi Care’s Türkiye market development, focusing on hospital relationships, pilot opportunities, onboarding, localisation and strategic partnerships. This work supports the process of introducing healthcare solutions into local settings, where institutional requirements and clinical practices shape implementation.
Her broader areas of focus include market entry strategy, hospital and physician engagement, pilot planning, regulatory coordination and cross-border healthcare technology collaboration. She is interested in working with hospitals, healthtech companies, investors and strategic partners seeking to develop scalable solutions that can be deployed locally.
From Kırşehir to an increasingly connected international healthtech community, Zaman’s work reflects a clear ambition: to make healthcare innovation translate into coordinated action and more consistent patient journeys.
