Luminare Series: Hosted by Center for Analytics and Technology in Society
The UC Davis Center for Analytics and Technology in Society continues its Luminare Series with a conversation on the digitization of healthcare. Given the monumental changes caused by COVID-19, we have never had more questions about healthcare: why is healthcare not efficient and effective, and how and where will technology improve the industry? We will be joined by leaders in Healthcare to discuss how result-oriented innovations, driven by technology, are paving the way for a better tomorrow.
Luminare Series: December 1, 2020 Event Recap
For many years now, an abundance of data and new analytics technologies are transforming decision-making and industry structures. This Luminare Series session with CEOs and industry innovators Chet Kapoor of DataStax and Ed Fotsch of Gemini Health will explain the transformational aspects of their respective efforts and visions, highlighting how new forms of data and new ways to manage big data are disrupting long-standing industry practices.
They will share tactics and leadership philosophies for executing such a transformative vision, notably in addressing or creating change within and across organizations as well as dealing with resistance from stakeholders whose business models are threatened by these transformations.
Professor Hemant Bhargava will moderate this fast-moving discussion. Bhargava is director of the new UC Davis Center for Analytics and Technology in Society and the Suran Chair in Technology Management at the UC Davis Graduate School of Management.
