Building what I was missing
when it was my turn.
I’m Raphaël Jolicoeur. I founded Tumour.me, a collective for 18-to-39-year-olds facing cancer and for the people who love them. I speak up for that cause. And I help organizations give their ideas an architecture, until those ideas turn into tools.
The collective I founded
Tumour.me: surrounded, without having to manage it.
When cancer is announced, everyone wants to help and nobody knows what to say. Tumour.me gives the patient a space of their own, and gives the people around them a concrete way to show up. The pilot opened on October 5, 2026, backed by 17 founding foundations in Québec. For the patient, it is free. Always.

How I can contribute
Speaking →
I talk about cancer from the inside, about AI put to work for the common good, and about what happens when health innovation comes from a patient instead of the system.
Thought Architecture →
I see the architecture where others still see the problem. We bring order to a line of thinking, then I design the tool, the AI assistant or the workflow that brings it to life.
About →
Magician, producer, entrepreneur, then patient. What led me here.
Something to build, a room to wake up, a cause to fund?
Write to me. I read every message, and I answer them myself.
