Part 4/7:
The name "Open Water" carries profound significance and inspiration, stemming from Peter Gabriel, the influential musician and humanitarian. Their relationship, nurtured from art school days in the '80s and '90s, blossomed during conferences where insights were exchanged regarding the vision for transforming healthcare. Gabriel's encouragement and persistent calls became a lynchpin motivating the innovator to launch Open Water.
Gabriel penned an essay reflecting on the concept of thoughts flowing like water, hinting at the importance of transparency and learning to navigate human vulnerabilities. His idea resonated deeply, leading to the adoption of the name “Open Water,” symbolizing clarity and the fluidity of communication and interaction.
