Abel Teo, co-founder of Castomize, is redefining orthopaedic care with groundbreaking 4D-printed casts — waterproof, lightweight, and antibacterial. These casts give patients the freedom to live life on their terms, free from the discomfort and limitations of traditional fibreglass options. More than innovation, Abel wants to restore dignity and comfort to those facing recovery challenges. Today, Abel’s vision reaches far beyond orthopaedic care. With his team at CASTOMIZE, he is reimagining what medical technology can achieve, from prosthetics to physical therapy and even veterinary care. Their mission is to ensure that advanced healthcare solutions are available to everyone, including those in underserved communities and disaster-stricken areas.

He does this by offering youths a supportive community to explore their ambitions authentically and learn from those who have walked the path before them. For Safafisalam, mentoring is a two-way exchange that benefits both the mentor and the mentee. His goal is to create a culture where success stories are achieved and shared, empowering future generations to embrace their identity, overcome stereotypes, and contribute meaningfully to their communities.
