5th MI-Tech Forum wrap-up: How AI-enabled technology can solve today's business challenges.
At the end of October, the team and I at EndPoint technologies hosted our 5th MI-Tech forum in partnership with phact-MI, and it was an unmitigated success. Nearly 30 pharmaceutical companies were represented, with over 80 participants and 8 vendors. There were also 5 technology sponsors of the event. It was our most successful forum to date, with an unparalleled number of stimulating presenters who share our vision of bringing emerging tech to the MI industry in interesting and sometimes surprising ways.
The main focus of the forum was artificial intelligence and how it can be utilized to benefit the medical information industry. Advancements in voice and chat technology, machine learning, natural language processing and understanding all contribute to a platform that enables real-world benefits for medical information professionals. We’re looking past the idea of AI as a shiny new toy, or pie-in-the-sky technology applications that we simply do not have the capability for yet. What we are passionate about is finding and developing ways AI can support, improve and elevate our business today. What problems exist right in front of us that can be solved using AI enabled technologies?
Along with our own EndPoint Technologies presentation where I demonstrated use cases for our new ChristoperAI technology, the forum featured presentations by other leading-edge technology companies such as 3vue, Evidscience, and Indegene as well as excellent demonstrations of technology currently in use by GlaxoSmithKline and Eli Lilly.
As always, some of the best discussions took place in the Hall, at the vendor tables, where interactions between attendees and vendors always spark interesting conversations. And the room was buzzing at the networking social event, where conversations amongst some of the best and brightest in the industry never fails to stimulate new ideas. If you know me, you know I am a dedicated supporter of face-to-face networking and real-life relationships, and I’m encouraged any time these types of industry social interactions can happen.
