The healthcare industry is in the midst of revolutionary change. The metamorphosis has been expected for quite some time as a natural consequence of transformational technologies like artificial intelligence and others, but nobody quite expected the pace of it.
The hastening of change has obviously been brought upon by the Covid-19 pandemic. It induced an evolution in the healthcare industry that was supposed to take decades, shortening it into a blink of two years. While the major wide-scale changes are visible, most things are happening below the surface. It is only when the dust from the pandemic settles that one will be able to see the new form that the industry has taken.
This is the mindset that was brought forth into being the edition of “The 10 Most Promising Women Of Healthcare & Wellness industry To Follow In 2022.” The portrait of the healthcare and wellness industry might still be developing, but the CIOLook team wished to bring a snapshot of the emerging picture.
The pandemic has brought an attitude change among the normal public, the research community, and the business world in how they think about healthcare and wellness. The person on the street is more aware and proactive regarding their personal well-being. Researchers are more willing to share data and collaborate on problems – bringing a oneness into the community. Investors are more ready to invest in the potential of healthcare-related proposals.
The CIOLook team reached out to various women in the healthcare and wellness sector, trying to gain a from-the-trenches perspective of the industry. They shared with us insights into the changes they have been observing in their companies, the new technologies and tools that they are employing or are poised to launch, and what future they envision their companies will be striding towards.
As health and wellness take center stage in the world, it is perhaps more important than ever to pay attention to these tales. To closely observe the revolution of the industry as it will set the direction of the industry for the rest of the century perhaps. As you flip the pages of this magazine, may you find tales that bring delight and inform you in equal measure.
