The Importance Of Creating User-Friendly Devices

🧠 What if your brain had a check-engine light?

Dr. Ramses Alcaide spent 10 years building the world’s most advanced non-invasive brain-computer interface — a wearable headset that reads your mind, predicts burnout, and helps you take back control of your mental energy.

In this episode of Business with Bartawi, he opens up about how a childhood encounter with disability sparked his mission, why neurotech is the next wave after software, and what it really takes to invent something the world thinks is impossible.

We talk conviction, failure, science, and the blurry line between ambition and obsession.

If you’ve ever pushed for a future no one else can see — this one’s for you.

💡 Topics Covered:

✅ The childhood accident that started it all
✅ Why he chose the army before consumers
✅ How burnout shows up in your brainwaves
✅ What entrepreneurs get wrong about health data
✅ Why non-invasive neurotech is the future
✅ The real cost of building something 10 years too early
