Womble Bond Dickinson is taking part in the Global Health Innovator Summit, which takes place Oct. 9 in Nashville.

Partner Allison Ko will host a fireside chat with Rebecca Laborde, Chief Scientist and Vice President at Oracle Health Innovation & Scientific Advisory. This conversation will help participants understand the impact of the accelerated pace of change given modern tools and technologies - the digitization of healthcare, genomic sequencing, biotechnology, cloud/compute/storage resources, and AI.

In addition, Partner John Scannapieco has been involved in planning the Global Health Innovator Summit, which is a joint effort of the Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce, HLTH Community, Womble Bond Dickinson, and the British Consulate in Atlanta.

This event will delve into the transformative potential of emerging technologies in healthcare. As cloud, compute, storage, and AI capabilities rapidly advance, they are empowering healthcare providers, diagnostic companies, digital/virtual-first providers, and therapeutic treatment leaders to create groundbreaking solutions. These innovations are crucial as communities navigate the challenges of an aging population, escalating care costs, and workforce shortages—regardless of geographic location and how care is financed.
