expenditures are directed towards
preventing ‘critical’ failures,
calibration and compliance.
IoT enables efficient management
of cost and optimization of drug or
medical device manufacturing
processes, linked to critical assets
and facilities.

Healthcare platforms fuse multiple screens, multiple methods and
captures data from disparate sources (e.g., wearables, mobile
devices, glucometers). Connectivity and provides patients and
caregivers a holistic and real time view of your health.
3. Agile Platform: Combining ecosystems and redefining healthcare

 New platform players emerging – Welltok,
Tic Trac, Social Wealth, genieMD, Pathway
Genomics
