Embedded Belief Systems: The Most Overlooked, Least Understood Opportunity in the Healthcare Blockchain Space

Abstract

Session Description: The most exciting part of blockchain and DLT innovation is not technical. It’s social. In fact, Blockchain could be the most exciting socio-economic experiment of our lifetimes. For the first time in our lives, innovative communities have the opportunity to build healthcare solutions that codify the belief systems of their creators. This is a remarkable and often-overlooked feature of blockchain system development could hold its greatest potential in use cases ranging from patient-centered care delivery to decentralization of the supply chain. This presentation will discuss why this concept is powerful, how this is new / different from the past, and why it makes innovation difficult but all the more meaningful.
