334 - ELEHEAR’s David Hogan Talks OTC Hearing Aids and the Future of Consumer Hearing Tech

How are over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids evolving as the market continues to develop? This week, host Bob Traynor speaks with David Hogan, Managing Director of ELEHEAR, about the growth of the OTC category and how new technologies are shaping consumer hearing solutions.Hogan brings more than 30 years of experience in audio wearables and hearing technology, including previous roles with GN and early wearable audio startups. In the conversation, he explains how ELEHEAR approaches hearing devices as a company rooted in sound processing algorithms and audio technology, and how that foundation has influenced the development of its OTC hearing products. The discussion also explores how features like Bluetooth connectivity, lifestyle audio functionality, and new earbud-style designs are expanding the role hearing devices can play in everyday life. Traynor and Hogan also discuss how OTC products may serve as an entry point for hearing care, helping more people begin addressing hearing challenges earlier while complementing traditional clinical pathways.
