The digital health funding landscape has gone through some major changes in the past  four years. Raises are now taking longer as investors are looking for clear evidence of  future profitability.

Pharma, like most industries, is harnessing the power of generative AI. The technology  holds promise to do things like predict drug-target interactions, optimize lead compounds  and generate novel molecular structures.

In healthcare, tech tools can only be as good as the people that use them. If healthcare  organizations don’t master the change management process when deploying new tools,  they could be putting the success of their pilots in serious jeopardy. Hear leaders share strategies that health systems can use to gain buy-in from their clinician stakeholders,  seamlessly integrate new tools into clinical workflows, and track staff interaction with  newly introduced products. 

Should startups be selling to employers?

No results found.

Date Not Found
Over the past few years, it’s become evident that employers are battling point solution  fatigue. But does that mean new startups shouldn’t try to sell to them anymore? During  this session, industry leaders will explore whether or not startups should stop going after  the employer market. 

How is healthcare dealing with its Achilles heel, cybersecurity?

No results found.

Date Not Found
Cybercriminals’ attacks on the healthcare industry are becoming more sophisticated by  the day. These cyberattacks pose major threats to patient safety, data integrity and stakeholder trust — and are also often a nightmare in terms of regulatory and legal cleanup. Hear how leaders from various corners of the sector are working together to  help bolster their defenses against global hackers.
