Digital transformation isn’t a trend owned by a
particular role, nor a discipline that belongs to
one department alone. One finding revealed that while the
word “digital” is part of “digital transformation,” the
essence of digital transformation comes down to
people and how their digital behaviours differ from that
of the traditional customers before them.
Why and How Companies Are Investing in New Business Models to Lead Digital Customer Experiences, we set out to determine how digital transformation unified disparate digital efforts under a common vision.
Back in 2013 the McKinsey Global Institute published a report entitled Disruptive technologies: Advances that will transform life, business, and the global economy. The report identified 12 technologies that could drive truly massive economic transformations and disruptions in the coming years. The report also looks at exactly how these technologies could change our world, as well as their benefits and challenges, and offers guidelines to help leaders from businesses and other institutions respond. The Report estimated that, together, applications of the 12 technologies discussed in the report could have a potential economic impact between $14 trillion and $33 trillion a year in 2025.
The potential benefits of the technologies discussed in the report are tremendous—but so are the challenges of preparing for their impact. If business and government leaders wait until these technologies are exerting their full influence on the economy, it will be too late to capture the benefits or react to the consequences.
Disruptive Technologies examined the current challenges and opportunities brought by such innovation whilst providing delegates the opportunity to test technologies via live demonstrations.

7 Reasons why Companies & Government should invest in Digital TransformationIsmail Sayeed
Early adoption of digital solutions to provide services, whether health related or not, allows organisations to be ready for future user demands. The large pool of data on patterns of service/product consumption, feedback and possible future behaviour (extracted from data analytics) can guide strategic decisions on what to invest in and for whom.
Digital healthcare innovation was needed decades ago, with or without a global health emergency. Other industries with complex systems have rapidly adopted digital transformation; such as logistics networks, taxation, commerce and others
- except healthcare.
A company that is already accustomed to some form of digital-based communication and operations (as much as possible) are the ones most able to survive and thrive in these circumstances.
A government body that can still function and serve remotely and digitally is the most ideal form of democracy. An organisation with remote workers, paperless reporting, established telecommunications through all chains of command are really agile in its truest form.
I had predicted 2 years ago that digital healthcare solutions would be the dominant narrative for the emerging middle class of many developing countries in Asia.
it is time for the global industry to transform itself to the new reality.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.

Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:

Emerging technologies
to improve quality of life
Trends
The market opportunity for
health, fitness and wellness—
including ‘betterment’—prod-
ucts and services encompass-
es technologies in four arenas
by Colin Milner
There is one simple truth about the 1.6
billon adults worldwide who are over
age 501
: They all have challenges that
technology can play a role in improving.
From health and wellness to communi-
cations and transportation, the oppor-
tunity is immense for any organization
that will listen, learn, create, implement
and deliver technological solutions
that can help meet this population’s
diverse—and growing—needs, wants
and expectations, not to mention their
aspirations.
In 2015, the active-aging market rep-
resented a USD$24.4-billion market
opportunity for technology providers,
according to the Consumer Technology
Association’s CTA Market Report: Active
Aging,2
released in March 2016. This op-
portunity is expected to grow to $42.7
billion by 2020, CTA predicts. So, what
are the areas that hold promise for those
delivering wellness programs?
As CEO of the International Coun-
cil on Active Aging®, I recently had
an intriguing interview with Bryan
O’Rourke to explore this question for
the Journal on Active Aging’s technology
issue. O’Rourke, a seasoned executive,
investor, board member and advisor,
has worked with many global brands
and organizations in technology, health
and fitness. He is also president of the
nonprofit Fitness Industry Technology
Council [Ed. Turn to page 57for a brief
biography]. Active-aging organiza-
tions seek to embrace new and existing
technologies while planning for what is
on the horizon, so I asked this industry
leader to share his insights with JAA
readers. Let’s jump right in to the
discussion.
CM: Beyond “wearables,” what do you
consider to be some exciting new areas in
technology in health, wellness and fitness?
BO: There are many exciting emerg-
ing technologies that extend beyond
the wearables trend. For the most part,
these technologies encompass four basic
arenas:

‘New era’solutions:Emerging technologies to improve
quality of life Continued from page 48
• artificial intelligence [AI]
• interfaces, like voice and augmented
[AR] or virtual reality [VR]
• sensors
• automated solutions, like robotics
These technologies essentially come
down to data inputs, and the outputs
that humans interact with or benefit
from. Driving the evolution of the
emerging tech—and its backbone—
are 24/7 connectivity to the Internet,
cloud computing, and continued ad-
vancing hardware and software. Com-
bined, these components are leading
to the Internet of Things (or “IoT”), a
global network of intelligent cyber-
physical systems that futurist Kevin
Kelly calls “the Holos.”3,4
[Ed. See page
54 for some resources in which Kelly
describes this concept.]
When we define technology arenas in
this way, it helps clarify our understand-
ing of fitness, health, wellness and, as I
like to term them, “betterment” prod-
ucts and services that will likely emerge.
We see evidence of these arenas in the
new products and services available now
that reflect these trends.
For example, voice interface solu-
tions (like Amazon’s Alexa) now offer
meditation, fitness, nutrition, and other
voice applications for humans. Vi, Life-
BEAM’s AI personal trainer, coaches
people who are exercising with voice.
Expect voice to continue to emerge as
a significant interface platform with all
technologies because of its convenience
and intuitive nature.
The continued evolution of AI will en-
able more productive applications for
users. Noom, which monitors and pro-
vides expert advice and analysis to help
people manage their weight, recently
became the first online platform to be
recognized by the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention [CDC] as an
effective program for reducing the risk
of diabetes. This is a turning point for
AI in the health and fitness sphere.
CDC is planning to allow patients to be
reimbursed by Medicare, which could
encourage doctors to recommend AI
solutions.
In the area of mental health, AI applica-
tions like Replika mimic being a human
friend, learning from and about you the
more you interact with them. Woebot
is an online therapist that helps apply
cognitive behavior techniques to improve
users’ moods.
AR and VR technologies like Magic Leap
One and Oculus Go are also bringing new
immersive interfaces to people, resulting
in more impactful experiences. Gamifi-
cation of activity—as we saw with the
Pokemon Go phenomenon—will become
more prevalent, as will the ability for vid-
eo content to become more emotionally
impactful. Motivation, education, deeper
understanding and further exposure to
the world in general can have tremendous
benefits for humanity.
There are many examples of these ex-
citing new technologies, which are so
important because they can do a much
better job of improving the quality of
people’s lives. We are just getting started
and the potential is significant. In the
end, technologies can be used to help
people live healthier, happier lives while
making our organizations and businesses
more effective.
CM: How are these technologies being
implemented, and by whom?
BO: Ultimately, adoption of technolo-
gies comes down to people’s choices—the
telephone replaced the telegraph, for
example, due to cost and convenience.
The adoption of new technologies does
take time, however. And there is always a
learning curve.
First, with respect to implementation,
technologies are being applied to impact
five key areas in the most foreword-
thinking organizations:
• hyperpersonalization—highly per-
sonalized offerings made possible
through the collection and use of
customer data
• uber-convenience—service offerings
that save time and effort at all aspects
of the customer experience
4. The Journal on Active Aging/Special technology issue 2018 www.icaa.cc 51
Continued on page 52
• frictionless transactions—simplified
purchase processes that enable quick
and easy payment decisions
• omnichannel delivery—integrated
on- and offline channels (digital and
physical) used to deliver offerings,
experiences or content
• content—materials created to give
audiences valuable information
rather than simply to sell products
or services, all with the ultimate
goal of motivating customers
to act
The new technologies that I previously
mentioned—AI, new interfaces like
voice and AR, sensors, and automated
solutions—comprise key parts of the
engines that make executing these five
dynamics possible.
People use tools they enjoy and which
are more effective and less costly than
alternatives. Therefore, in order to
help people be healthier and happier,
successful health, wellness and fitness
solutions—including “betterment” solu-
tions—must be designed with these five
criteria in mind.
Second, with respect to who is adopting
these technologies, there are those “im-
plementing” them and others transform-
ing their entire organizations around
them—there is a difference. In a world
where customers’ expectations continue
to heighten, you are either moving to-
ward the future quickly or being crushed
by it. It is inadequate for companies to
try to implement certain technology fea-
tures instead of assessing the potential to
transform user experiences and econom-
ics holistically by using technology.
My research suggests “outlier” organiza-
tions that excel at digital transformation
represent only 4–8% of the existing
competitors in any consumer industry,
with another 15% making meaningful
progress toward reengineering their user
experiences. That leaves around 80%
of competitors as average, mediocre or
poor. It is a great time to be an innovator
or new entrant in “betterment,” because
the opportunities are significant. Many
new technology trends are introduced
by new companies unburdened by legacy
thinking or functions.
CM: Please highlight a few new products
that could significantly impact the well-
being of older adults, and tell us why.
BO: The “healthcare” experience is a
good reference point to juxtapose legacy
operations and new era solutions while
identifying real products in the market-
place. Think of going to see a physician
for basic care as opposed to using the
Doctor On Demand app. In the old
world, you drive somewhere, fill out
paperwork, wait, and see a physician for
maybe 10 minutes to obtain a diagnosis.
This endeavor can take several hours. In
the new era, with Doctor On Demand,
you use an app on your telephone to see
the licensed doctor via video and have
a diagnosis performed in a matter of
minutes without having to go anywhere.
The realm of traditional healthcare will
undergo massive transformations that
extend beyond this example.
Look for voice interface and AI to usher
in an era of intelligent assistants, advis-
ing you of the medications you need
to take and ensuring you get adequate
activity and sleep and eat well. Constant
monitoring of health conditions will be
a given, as will proactive interventions
around unhealthy episodes. The Apple
Watch has already been credited with
notifying many users of cardiac events
and conditions, saving lives; it now also
reminds you to stand up or meditate.
Solutions like this are appearing in the
form of Google’s Assistant and Apple’s
Siri. In fact, Siri can now recognize be-
haviors and prompt certain actions or
reminders to help. Running late? Siri can
text your boss. Son’s birthday? Remind-
ed. This is just the beginning.
As we see in Japan today, personal robots
are entering the mainstream that offer
both physical and emotional support
to older and younger people. Countless
robots are for sale. From the Pepper and
Temi robots available today, with many
more emerging and under development,
expect robots to become an increasingly
common reality in a variety of industries
and in people’s homes in the coming years.
CM: Today, we talk about smart homes,
smart clubs, smartwatches, etc. Where do
you see this area heading?
BO: The term smart in this context
commonly refers to the Internet of
Things. The collection of data via sen-
sors, the storage of that data in the
cloud, and the use of machine learning
and AI can combine to create a litany of
helpful solutions. Massive data collec-
tion is resulting in insights that were not
possible previously.
The industry that has the greatest
chance to be transformed by smart tech-
nologies is traditional healthcare as it
morphs into scientific wellness, a quanti-
tative approach that includes improving
the health of individuals, creating per-
sonalized treatments, reversing disease
transitions and reducing costs. This new
industry will be distinct from more con-
temporary wellness trends. The reams of
data on health and deeper understand-
ing of individual genomes will make a
major impact on treating debilitating
diseases and chronic conditions. Health-
care will shift to improving wellness
for the individual, creating medicine
that is preventive, personalized and
participatory while reversing rising
cost trends.
Alzheimer’s disease, for example, costs
nearly half a trillion dollars a year and

is largely managed after later stage di-
agnosis. Data clouds about patients and
computer-aided diagnostics will enable
researchers and clinicians to pinpoint
the earliest sign of cognitive decline,
which can happen anywhere from 4 to
10 years prior to today’s diagnoses. From
there, scientists can divide Alzheimer’s
into subtypes and use individuals with
high genetic risk to track cognitive tran-
sitions. Big data will equip people with
the information and tools to modify
habits—be they diet, exercise or sleep—
or their genes to optimize personal
health.
People’s health is already being impacted
through the use of genomic medicine.
This will be a huge area of change in the
next decade. It is widely believed that
in 10 years, genomes will cost less than
USD$100 a piece and will take 15 min-
utes. Innovative companies like Ama-
zon, which employs a secretive group
called Grand Challenge,5
are working on
a series of bold projects involving cancer
research, medical records and last-mile
delivery of care, which will contribute
even greater transformations using big
data to make healthcare more intelligent
or “smart.”
CM: Do you have examples of implemen-
tation and success?
BO: Numerous examples exist. One is
Express Scripts, which processes phar-
maceutical claims. The company real-
ized that those who most need to take
their medications were also those most
likely to forget to take them. So, Express
Scripts created a new solution by using
data and machines (e.g., beeping medi-
cine caps) as well as automated phone
calls reminding patients when it’s time
to take the next dose.
Earlier this year, Apple introduced a sig-
nificant update to its Health app, debut-
ing a feature for customers to see their
medical records right on their iPhones.
The updated “Health Records” section
within the Health app brings together
13 healthcare systems and the existing
app to make it easy for consumers to see
their available medical data from mul-
tiple providers whenever they choose.
Johns Hopkins Medicine, Cedars-Sinai,
Penn Medicine [University of Pennsyl-
vania Health System] and other partici-
pating hospitals and clinics are among
the first to make this beta feature avail-
able to their patients.
CM: What are the challenges and oppor-
tunities with smart technology?
BO: As with all new technologies, there
will be gaps between their promise
and what happens in their initial intro-
ductions. From the advent of commer-
cial jet aircraft wherein several initial
crashes stymied progress, to the recent
and unfortunate mishaps with automat-
ed vehicles resulting in loss of life, these
near-term challenges will result in many
who will bemoan the “success” of these
solutions.
With respect to older adults, there will
likely be medical misdiagnosis from AI
and data solutions that, in theory, a hu-
man would not have missed. Adoption
of technologies tends to take longer for
older adults, as recent Pew Research has
indicated. However, this lag of adop-
tion from younger to older is starting to
fade. I believe that as interfaces become
easier and more intuitive to use, and
technology become more like the air we
breathe, the new paradigm will increas-
ingly be the ability to benefit from these
technologies without realizing they are
there.
Colin Milner is founder and CEO of the
International Council on Active Aging®.
A leading authority on the health and
well-being of the older adult, Milner has
been recognized by the World Economic
Forum as one of “the most innovative and
influential minds” in the world on aging-
