3:10pm Moving Toward Consumer Focused Healthcare: Lessons to Learn from the Connected Home

Reenita Das Partner, Senior Vice President Transformational Health Frost & Sullivan

Session Abstract:In healthcare, the ‘anytime, anywhere care’ trend is driving several technology and care delivery innovations. One of the results is care delivery moving away from traditional settings towards the home, where patients spend most of their time. Even so, the hope with these trends is to catch diseases early on, and enable populations to live longer, healthier lives. In parallel, the consumer industry is seeing the emergence of smart homes, or with the current maturity levels - connected homes. Can healthcare leverage the connected home concept?

With telemedicine and remote patient monitoring concepts, healthcare as an industry is already leveraging technology for chronic disease management and post-acute care. With connected home sensors, elderly care is being transformed, attempting to meet the demand of aging-in-place. A connected home platform that integrates sensors and other technology with existing solutions of telemedicine can serve even healthcare needs - but better, make them efficient enough to provide continuous health tracking to provide a holistic picture of their residents’ health. This can allow us to move beyond ‘sick care’ to actual ‘health care’, where preventive care techniques can truly be employed.

We are getting there, but it’s a journey with a long road ahead. Current developments and milestones point towards a great future for a potential smart home that serves ‘health care’ needs along the clinical care continuum.

Key Take-Aways:

• Insight into how leading companies are enabling healthcare management outside traditional care delivery centers

• An update on the convergence of technologies that are being piloted to enable health monitoring, beyond the traditional definition of home health monitoring

• Key considerations and challenges in implementing regulated health technologies in a consumer environment of a connected home

THINK TANK 5 – THE FINAL FRONTIER – DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION OF THE CHEMICAL, MATERIAL, & FOOD INDUSTRIES


1:30pm Industry Digital Transformation Outlooks

Christopher J. Shanahan Global Director – Visionary Science Frost & Sullivan

Session Abstract:Historical changes are occurring in the traditional process manufacturing sectors, including the chemical, material, food & beverage, and biotechnology sectors, due to the adoption and integration of digital technologies. Consequently, 2018 will be a critical year for process manufacturing companies as many are beginning to formalize more coherent and connected strategies around the theme of digital transformation.

Frost & Sullivan has identified seven key domains in which the process manufacturing sectors are being transformed by digital technologies. These domains correspond to unique points in the industry value chain, from innovation and raw materials sourcing, via digital plants, to digital customers and consumers. For process manufacturing companies to make the best use of digital technologies, they must be aware of their effect on each industry domain and also their interconnectedness.

Key Take-Aways:

• Fresh perspective of each of the seven identified domains and insights on the enabling technologies behind digital transformation

• Insights and the pitfalls on the potential impact of automation, AI, and robotics on process manufacturing companies future operations

• Best practices for leveraging digital technologies to drive operational efficiency and new revenue streams

1:50pm Ask the Experts! Panel on Partnering for Innovative Solutions

Session Abstract:The process manufacturing plant of the future will be “connected, modular, and sustainable.” Smaller and smarter, some plants that were commissioned in 2017 are excellent examples of what digital technologies can allow the process manufacturing industry sectors to achieve. Despite the pace of development, more than 60% of the top chemical companies in the world still have no strong corporate message about digital transformation as a strategic Mega Trend and how this will tie into driving future revenue and operational efficiency growth. Much of this gap is due to a lack of technology partners that can expedite and enable digital transformation.

In this panel discussion, leaders from the IT and process manufacturing sectors will discuss the history, present, and future of intra-industry collaboration among the two sectors.

Key Take-Aways:

• Insights from industry leaders on Best Practices and potential pitfalls of intraindustry collaboration between the IT and process manufacturing sectors to drive growth

• Fresh perspectives from industry leaders on how new technologies and business models have transformed tactical and strategic decision making

• Proven techniques on how to lay the ground work for identifying and qualifying best fit technology partnerships
