So, what exactly has this duo done to feature on the “most wanted” list in business:

Omninela Medical is a business founded by the brothers. It is an emerging healthtech startup that has become a beacon of hope and change in the healthcare landscape of South Africa and beyond. 

Launched as an e-commerce health destination, the roots of its success are planted in its commitment to delivering effective health monitoring technologies, devices, and services to consumers, all from the comfort of their homes.

What sets Nicolas Lognath, Ricardo Lognath, and Omninela apart is their commitment to social impact.

With over 550,000 users on the platform in 2023, there is no doubt that this company is on a trajectory towards changing access to healthcare in SA. 

While Nicolas and Ricardo's influence extends beyond Omninela through educational initiatives and industry impact, there are plans to expand Omninela into the African market.
