In the past few years, the need for agility, security, sustainability and right-sized solutions has driven companies to change the way they think about data. As this mindset shifts, solutions and innovations in digital transformation are no longer a bonus; they are an essential part of the modern business strategy. “We’re absolutely going through a transformation, and I think we’re shifting to an edge-to-cloud platform company,” said Alexia Clements (pictured), vice president for worldwide sales and go-to-market leader for HPE GreenLake at Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. “And with that, it’s how we approach our customers differently, and our partners.” Clements spoke with theCUBE industry analyst Dave Vellante at the HPE Discover 2022 event , during an exclusive broadcast on theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s livestreaming studio. They discussed transformational journeys and the need for aligned communication. (* Disclosure below.)

SAN DIEGO, February 8, 2023 (Newswire.com) – Faro Health Inc. , a cloud-computing company that is developing digital infrastructure for smart clinical trials, today announced $20 million in additional funding. The round was led by global venture capital firm General Catalyst with participation from previous investors Section 32 , Polaris Partners , Zetta Ventures , and Northpond Ventures . General Catalyst Partner Elena Viboch will join Faro’s Board of Directors. Designing and executing clinical trials has become increasingly complex. However, the tools to support these studies have not kept up. Protocols are still drafted as long-form documents and authors have no tools to evaluate their complexity or burden on patients. At the same time, the number of endpoints measured in a clinical study has grown by 27% over the past decade and patients are asked to undergo 44% more assessments, which can range from written data collection to a blood draw. This growth also shows no signs of slowing down. Existing tools for clinical study protocol development have not evolved to handle the growing complexity of the study data required to support market access, and there are no tools to support rapid translation of a protocol into the software […]

Costa Rica lags in fixed broadband penetration and also trails its neighbors in terms of 5G implementation, according to the OECD. “Regulatory barriers on e-communications are relatively high in Costa Rica. Excessive and sometimes inconsistent regulations across public institutions also hinders infrastructure deployment. Heterogeneous regulations at municipal level are a particular concern”, the Paris-based organization said in a report on the country’s economy. Costa Rica recently published a law to facilitate telecom infrastructure deployment and enable the use of public spaces for such infrastructure. Expanding access to fixed broadband, which stands at about 34 subscriptions per 100 inhabitants, should be a priority, according to OECD. While mobile service prices are “significantly lower than in regional peers and at par with the OECD average in terms of affordability”, fixed broadband remains significantly above, it said. OECD highlighted that Costa Ricans need nearly 15% of their monthly income to pay for a fixed broadband connection compared to only 2% in the case of mobile broadband. The country’s 2027 telecom development plan sets out several connectivity goals, including increasing internet access and speeds. Fixed broadband accesses totaled 1.05mn at the end of 2021, according to latest data from sector regulator Sutel . […]

The COVID-19 sped up healthcare’s digital transformation. The 20-minute telehealth visit can mean less unpaid time off from work and the difference between seeking care and putting food on the table. Care-at-home programs can reduce the risks associated with hospitalization, such as hospital-acquired infections. Technology is advancing within every sector of the economy, making businesses and services more consumer-friendly efficient, and available. Nowhere is this transformation more apparent than in healthcare. Kicked into hyperdrive by the COVID-19 pandemic, the transformation means that more physicians and clinicians than ever are using technology to better meet the needs of patients in ways that improve outcomes, equity, access, efficiency and affordability. Technology,such as telehealth,enables healthcare organizations to tailor care to the specific needs of individual patients, creating a personalized experience that results in better health for individuals and populations. Tailored experiences are something people increasingly demand , not just from healthcare, but from every aspect of their lives. What may separate innovation in the healthcare sector from other areas of the economy is the motivation to improve lives, not just efficiencies. During the pandemic, health systems’ ability to rapidly scale telehealth services enabled patients to continue receiving care while keeping them safe […]
