Digital health is entering a new era. The challenge is no longer getting people to wear health technology, but making it trusted, clinically meaningful and part of everyday life.

As Chief Commercial Officer at Oura, Dorothy Kilroy leads the company’s partnerships, business development and enterprise strategy. She is helping expand Oura beyond a consumer wearable into a broader health platform, connecting technology with healthcare providers, researchers, employers and global brands.

Her work reflects a wider shift in healthcare, where continuous data, AI and scientific research are reshaping how people understand their health.

Before joining Oura, Dorothy Kilroy spent almost eight years at Airbnb, where she led the global Host Community. She oversaw products and programmes supporting more than four million Hosts, helping strengthen one of the world’s largest platform businesses during a period of rapid international growth.

Earlier roles at Marqeta and Visa gave her deep experience in payments, partnerships and product strategy. Together, they offer a perspective on how successful technology businesses evolve, not simply by introducing new products, but by solving real problems and building lasting relationships with customers and partners.

Kilroy has become an influential voice on the future of digital health. She believes wearable technology should provide meaningful insight rather than more information, enabling people to make better decisions before health problems arise. Her work has also helped bring greater attention to women’s health, including fertility, pregnancy and menopause, as well as the responsible use of AI in healthcare.

Alongside her executive career, Kilroy serves on the board of Eat Real, a non-profit working to improve access to nutritious food for children in schools.

Drawing on leadership experience across some of the world’s most influential technology companies, Dorothy Kilroy speaks on commercial growth, platform businesses, AI, digital health, partnerships, leadership and the future of preventative healthcare.
