The Ultimate Health Dashboard
Heads Up Health was founded by a team of health-conscious technology experts on the simple concept that being healthy doesn’t have to be complicated. We saw a world of disjointed medical records, underutilized health tracking technologies and abundant, but poorly managed, health data. We felt that intelligent software could provide the perfect solution.
Based on our belief that well-organized data holds the key to optimal health, we have created a central space where you can manage and explore your own. We are constantly looking for feedback from our customers. We would love to talk more about your health goals and discuss how Heads Up can be a part of your solution.
Heads Up Health is a seed-stage technology company based in Scottsdale, AZ. We are engineering an entirely new approach to personal health by integrating clinical, lifestyle, nutritional and self-collected data with personalized analytics and insights.

Virtualz
VirtualZ Computing™ is a privately held, woman-founded, woman-led software company that is revolutionizing mainframe and cloud data access. With our products, Lozen™ and Zaac™, enterprises are empowered with real-time, read-write data access from any platform, anytime, anywhere.
VirtualZ Computing™ is a privately held, woman-founded, woman-led software company that is revolutionizing mainframe and cloud data access. With our products, Lozen™ and Zaac™, enterprises are empowered with real-time, read-write data access from any platform, anytime, anywhere.
Lozen software allows you to leave data where it is — securely on the IBM Z platform — eliminating the need to replicate or “lift and shift” data. Lozen was built on familiar, industry-standard protocols and APIs that maintain mainframe-level security and performance. It unlocks broader data access at a lower cost and enables simpler application migration — all in a no-code implementation.
Zaac operates under the concept of “IBM Z as a Client,” allowing mainframe applications to read and write data from other platforms in real time — the way a client would. With Zaac, the mainframe is elevated so that it has the same data access capabilities as any other platform. Applications running on IBM Z now have real-time, read-write access to data on other storage platforms and to data created by applications running in the cloud and on distributed platforms — all while maintaining existing mainframe-level security.
VirtualZ is a Microsoft Partner, Micro Focus (now OpenText) Authorized Technology Alliance Partner, Infosys Partner, Splunk Technology Alliance Partner, and an IBM Partner Plus member.
