Customer Profile

Tomorrow Medical is an innovative medical startup that is revolutionizing the healthcare market in Poland. The company offers a hybrid model of care, combining a network of physical clinics with an advanced mobile app , which allows patients to consult online, receive e-prescriptions or access medical records. As an entity operating in a highly regulated industry and processing sensitive medical data, Tomorrow Medical must meet the highest legal and security standards while maintaining the agility and speed characteristic of a technology startup.

Challenges

Before working closely with dotlaw, Tomorrow Medical faced several key challenges:

Regulatory complexity: The medical and technology sectors are areas with separate, complex and frequently changing regulations.
Protection of sensitive data: Large-scale processing of medical data required constant oversight by the Data Protection Officer and the highest standards of compliance with the RODO.
Dynamic development: Rapid growth, including through acquisitions, generated the need for immediate support in M&A processes and integration of new entities.
Innovation at the intersection of law and technology: The design of AI systems in medicine has involved new legal areas that are not yet fully regulated.
Need for ongoing education of the team: the organization’s growth required systematic awareness raising of employees on laws, regulations and data protection.

Thanks to comprehensive and flexible cooperation with dotlaw, it has been possible to implement a support model perfectly tailored to the needs of Tomorrow Medical:
