Dr. Erik Louwerens Founder & CEO of BetterCareMarket | Former Sanofi Executive | Medical Doctor
Dr. Erik Louwerens came to Australia to lead the merger of Sanofi and Aventis, creating what became the third-largest pharmaceutical company globally. Prior to that, he was educated as a medical doctor at the University of Groningen in the Netherlands.
Today, Erik leverages over two decades of healthcare experience in various advisory positions, aiming to improve the lives of patients through practical innovation. His personal journey - searching for fall-prevention solutions for his mother - led him to launch BetterCareMarket, a specialised healthcare retail platform. Frustrated by the lack of accessible, practical products and guidance, he created Bettercaremarket to bridge that gap and empower individuals and carers with helpful tools and support.
Erik’s unique blend of medical insight, executive leadership, and personal caregiving experience informs every aspect of BetterCareMarket’s mission.
