Everyone knows that necessity is the mother of invention, but in the case of Geoffrey Tan, founder and CEO of Geob International Sdn Bhd, the proverb was turned on its head as his mother was the driving force behind the device he created.

Mdm Tan asked that Geoffrey come up with a device that would tell them whenever his father was having or about to have a hypoglycaemia attack, a medical event involving abnormally low levels of glucose in the blood that can have serious effects.
