The transformation of the healthcare and life science industry has begun.

While it may take many years to “reach the nirvana” state, the shake-up in patient / provider and payer processes / analytics systems will leave our industry significantly disrupted. The global IoT (Internet of Things) healthcare market is expected to grow from $30 billion in 2015 to $150 billion + by 2020 and IoT-enabled connectivity within hospital labs will increase total global laboratory test throughput by more than 3 billion diagnostic tests over the next 5 years.

Given the impact IoT is expected to have on our industry, HExN is delighted to extend its partnership with the IoT Community on its Second International, IoT Slam® 2016 Virtual Internet of Things conference; taking place April 28th 2016, on-line in the cloud.
