3. "Every generation needs a new revolution."
-Thomas Jefferson
• Mobile technology has become ubiquitous in our consumer
lives…and it’s bridging to other areas

and improved clinical actions
– Consumer: Creating excitement and ease to drive engagement and
behavior change with relevant and actionable information and topics
– Connected Care: Integrating all key stakeholders (HCPs, life sciences
companies, payers, consumers) to efficiently achieve desired health care
outcomes
