Tech Council to Lead Panel Discussion on the Regional Opportunities of Precision Medicine and Digital Health
The state of Maryland, and specifically Montgomery County, have become leaders in the evolution of bringing together information technology companies with healthcare and life science companies for the purpose of advancing the future of precision medicine and digital health. As a respected representative, the Tech Council is taking the lead in this effort and on November 3, we are hosting an invitation-only panel discussion to lay the groundwork by discussing standards for information sharing, partnering in the development of opportunities, and addressing challenges that are associated with this new paradigm. This is a first-of-its-kind consolidation of discussion to include life sciences, technologies, and healthcare industry specialists with key government and academic leaders.
Topics to be discussed include:
- What are the opportunities?
- What are the challenges that will need to be overcome?
- What resources will be required, and how will those resources be
marshaled to drive success? - Who needs to partner?
The panel will be comprised of 15-20 selected industry and opinion leaders, and a professional moderator will facilitate the discussion to drive the focus. Members of the panel will develop recommendations and guidance for marshaling government and regional resources, providing industry incentives, and directing public/private collaborations intended to support
precision medicine and digital health initiatives that will facilitate the collaboration and growth of related businesses in Maryland and Montgomery County.
Outcomes from the November 3 meeting will be published in the December issue of the Vibe. If you would like more information on this and future discussions, please contact Michelle Ferrone at MFerrone@techcouncilmd.com.
