If you ask anybody in the United States, they will most likely say that our healthcare system is deeply dysfunctional. So what are we going to do about it?
 
Hey everybody, this is Chris Brandt, here with another FUTR podcast.

Today I have with me Carolyn Ward, Director of Clinical Strategy at Particle Health, where she is responsible for developing the clinical product roadmap for the organization, ensuring that providers and patients are represented throughout the research and development process.

Carolyn feels that a large part of the problem is access to data. Particle's modern API platform is designed to enable simple and secure access to actionable patient data  to prevent digital friction and to promote positive patient outcomes. She also has some thoughts on what the future of healthcare may look like.

So let's hear it directly from Carolyn

ESG, Environmental, Social, and corporate governance, is a term that keeps getting discussed in the C-Suite and the corporate boardrooms, but how does it work and what are the impacts to business? 

Growing out of the UN's corporate social responsibility initiative over the last 20 years, it has grown to represent more that $30 trillion in managed assets. Some have argued that the initiative has failed to truly impact the cost of capital for irresponsible firms, but this has not stalled the initiatives to push companies towards social responsibility.

Today we have with us Ricky Marton, Co-Founder and CEO of Koru which provides a data-driven platform for connecting companies with impact organizations for improved corporate sustainability, ESG and social impact initiatives.

So let's talk with Ricky about why this movement is so important.

Welcome Ricky

Hey everybody, this is Chris Brandt, here with another FUTR podcast.

Databricks hosted their Data + AI World Tour event in Chicago on October 3rd, and with all of the hype around AI, Generative AI and Large Language Models, this was the perfect place to get a feel for what is going on. 

To start with, it was a well attended event, in fact it was a sold out event, and I understand that similar events in other cities around the world were also sold out.

The theme for the show was Generation AI, a clever play on Gen AI, but certainly this is a kind of generational change we are seeing. Databricks is coming off a hot streak, with their last raise valuing them at $43 Billion

Ari Kaplan, Databricks' Lead Evangelist, was there to deliver a keynote address, "Welcome to Generation AI." If you aren't familiar with Ari Kaplan, he is considered to be the "Real Moneyball Guy".
