5. Goal

6. Website focused on Diabetics
• We are launching an online support program for diabetes
patients, dubbed Cornerstone4care that promises patients
one-stop shopping for diabetes information and product
information
• They can also get recipes, calculate nutritional values, connect
with other patients and get daily action plans tailored to their
lifestyle and information needs, along with strategies for
dealing with special situations like travel.
• The site focuses on four “cornerstones” of diabetes control –
checking blood sugar, eating healthy, exercising and taking
medications

8. Diabetes APP
• We plan to develop a software for Diabetics
which allows them to record, store, and
analyze information electronically, all in the
palm of your hand.
• Features:
– This app lets you record blood glucose
levels and note the time of day—such as
“before breakfast” or “during activity.”
– You can view trend graphs, interact in the
forums, and record insulin injections,
exercise, and food eaten.
– You can also sync your phone to an online
account to manage your data on our
website.
– Easily downloadable to cell phones and
computers

network
