Trust or Consequences 2040
Will innovations in healthcare and medicine deliver?
USP and MIT Center for Collective Intelligence report imagines health innovations and what stands in the way of success.
Just a few weeks before the first cases of COVID-19 were made public, a group of more than 100 global experts in health and medicine was imagining the future of health innovation and factors that could determine its success or failure. A recurring theme was the increasing frequency of global crises that would lead to wide scale disturbances and force healthcare leaders to collaborate and deliver health solutions that are truly global. This hypothetical series of events that the world began to see play out in early 2020—alongside other future-oriented scenarios—is described in a new report by USP and the MIT Center for Collective Intelligence.
