Great things in business are never done by one person; they're done by a team of people. - Steve Jobs Many hands make light work. This simple truth is a game changer for health science and healthtech. In healthtech, collaboration is more than just beneficial. It's transformative. When brilliant minds unite, we can create solutions that save lives. A unity where real time data sharing between healthcare professionals improves patient outcomes by 50% or where AI diagnostics reduce errors by another 50%. This is being created and it's happening right now. 🤔 Have you ever wondered what we could achieve if we pooled our expertise in healthtech? Let's face it, healthcare has been traditionally isolated. But that's changing. Interdisciplinary teams are breaking down barriers, embracing innovation at unprecedented rates. A recent study found that collaborative efforts in healthtech projects increase success rates on so many levels. Think about it. A nurse's practical knowledge, a doctor's expertise, and a developer's coding skills all working together to tackle health challenges. This is the future of healthcare. We're witnessing a moment where the power of many hands is redefining healthtech. In our opinion, healthtech's greatest innovation won't come from a single genius but from a collaborative effort. It's not about inventing that next big thing. It's really, really about us creating a system where every contribution counts. I admit that, as health techie, we've seen projects not do so well due to lack of collaboration. It's a tough pill to swallow, but it's taught me the value of diverse teams. 🤔 Can you picture a healthtech platform where patient data is shared easily across devices and professionals globally? It's unique for sure. But it's possible. The secret of change is to focus all your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new. - Socrates Let's build this new reality together. To all innovators across the network, let's for sure connect to create and invent.

That’s a wrap on the Women's Health Innovation Series USA! Yesterday was the last day of the conference but it was still packed with engaging panel sessions and 1-2-1 meetings. Empowering words from the opening panel of Elizabeth Bailey, Trish Costello, Susan Nicholson MD FIDSA, Diana Torgersen and Megan Greenfield, Ph.D. as they discussed the ‘Health of Women’ and the integral part it plays in the health of every single person on the planet. Susan’s comments echoed the points raised on day one about the importance of reimbursement strategies for early innovators – if there isn’t an existing CPT code then this hurdle needs to be well understood, as there is no business without someone paying for it. Caution was also advised to those intending for users to pay out of pocket for new innovation, as this could create further wealth disparities within the sector. This was explored again in the afternoon session; ‘Next Generation of Imaging – Increasing Access in Cancer Screening’ panel with Marissa Fayer, Connie Lehman, Jyoti Gupta, PhD and Andrew Smith. It is clear the standard of care in the US is very high, but the panel touched on how to address the issue of quality being very heterogeneous. With a conversation on next gen tech, AI was naturally discussed with a focus on how it can simplify, optimise, and automate more of the administrative radiology tasks to free up time and help lower the barrier to access. Finally, after originally meeting a couple of years back as FemTech Lab mentors, (the catalyst to my work for eg technology Ltd in this sector) it was great to see Megan Sands present Ellele Health in the startup showcase.

Ready to shake up the HealthTech scene? If you're not making waves in this massive market, you're probably doing it all wrong. Check this out: the HealthTech industry is exploding. From a $106 billion valuation in 2019 to a projected $504.4 billion by 2025, the potential is staggering. But here's the kicker: despite the numbers, many are still missing the mark. Just think about it. 96% of medical practices are on Electronic Health Record systems, and two-thirds of U.S. adults are using mobile health apps. AI applications alone are poised to save the U.S. healthcare economy a whopping $150 billion annually by 2026. The demand is there, the technology is there, but where's the strategy? Here's why flying blind in HealthTech is downright reckless: it's a recipe for chaos. You end up with aimless direction, wasted resources, and a serious lack of competitive edge. Without a solid plan, you're just spinning your wheels, risking financial pitfalls, and missing out on golden opportunities left and right. But fear not, because here's where I come in. With the right strategy, we can turn your HealthTech venture into a game-changer. Let's align your resources, pinpoint your targets, and unleash your full potential.
