Current Company
Emotiv — Co-Founder & CEO
Making Brain-Computer Interfaces Accessible
Tan Le co-founded Emotiv in 2011 to bring brain-sensing technology out of research laboratories and into everyday life. Named Young Australian of the Year in 1998 for her contributions to the Vietnamese-Australian community, Tan Le has spent her career at the intersection of neuroscience and technology. Emotiv’s portable EEG headsets allow researchers, developers, and consumers to measure brain activity in real-world settings — a capability that was previously confined to expensive clinical equipment.
Under Tan Le’s leadership as Co-Founder and CEO, Emotiv’s technology is used in research institutions, hospitals, and wellness applications across over 140 countries. Tan Le’s vision is to make brain-sensing technology as accessible and ubiquitous as heart-rate monitors — enabling applications from mental health monitoring and cognitive performance training to brain-controlled interfaces for people with disabilities. Tan Le’s work positions her at the frontier of neurotechnology, where healthcare, consumer technology, and human-computer interaction converge.
