May Glasgow Networking Breakfast – Dave Hughes – Novosound

THE SPEAKER

Dr Dave Hughes has come a long way since winning our Rising Star Award in 2019 both in the UK and globally, enjoying impressive success globally.  He is the inventor of Novosound’s core IP which led to the creation of Novosound in April 2018.  Dave has developed from an academic to a high-growth entrepreneur, overseeing the technical direction and vision of the company.  Under Dave’s leadership, Novosound has grown rapidly to become an award-winning global business, working across the globe in a wide range of diverse industry sectors and markets.

“Our vision is Ultrasound Integrated Everywhere. My passion for ultrasound means taking it out of the hospital and in to the homes for all.

At Novosound, we have created the world’s first commercialised platform for wireless wearable ultrasound. Our clients use it to build solutions for digital health monitoring and other medical applications that are in long need of democratisation.  If we do this right, your next smartwatch will gain insight deeper into your body with Novosound Inside.”

To add to many successes, in February 2025, Novosound’s first major installation in Korea started.

“Seeing our ultrasound corrosion monitoring system move from the lab to a live industrial environment is both exciting and rewarding. This is where innovation meets real-world application, and it’s happening right now.”

Previously, Dave was the Research Theme Leader in Ultrasound Imaging for the University of The West of Scotland.  His research group researched High Frequency Ultrasound imaging and its applications to biomedical and NDT sciences. This included photacoustics, imaging applications (conventional pulse-echo and quantitative imaging) and also particle manipulation techniques. Targets he looked at included dental caries, diabetic foot disease, breast cancer, retina and skin.
