Talk with Q&A: Challenges in sharing information across medical IoT
Healthcare is transforming from cure to prevention and an important part of this transformation will be Internet of things (IoT) solutions that collect data on and near the individual. If the enabling AI is to be useful, there must be a way to share data between stakeholders with the consent from the individual whose data it is. Parallels are easy to find in the financial sector when sharing account information or making payments. This presentation will elaborate an innovative approach for addressing these challenges. |

Talk with Q&A: Life sciences companies as superb candidates for the adoption of blockchain technology
Life Sciences companies operate with overwhelming amounts of data — data which must be shared yet secure, data that is digitised now more than ever, data that belongs to the increasingly empowered patient. By providing faster access to this trusted data, as well as facilitating better collaboration and increased transparency, blockchain can significantly improve and personalise the patient experience. The technology can also help reduce counterfeit medicines, promote more effective research and development, and drive new or optimised business models. |
Andrew Fried, Global Life Sciences Industry Leader at IBM and Stefano Bensi, Director, Watson Internet of Things, World Wide Sales at IBM |
