Including sustainability decisions into business strategy is considered a critical driver for business growth. Companies have started to realize that in order to prosper and have a competitive advantage, they need to invest in sustainability decisions. Incorporating sustainability policies would improve business outcomes by attracting and retaining customers, improving shareholder value and increasing profits. Companies expect operational and growth-related benefits in the realm of cutting costs and looking towards opportunities in new markets and products. However, companies that have yet to invest in sustainability have a higher chance of losing trust than those who do invest in it. This webinar will explain how these sustainability decisions impact consumers, if they are typically at the top of a CEO’s agenda and what the tradeoffs are for pushing sustainability within the company structure.

Watch an ExcerptEven though women comprise almost 50% of the population, women's health accounts for only 4% of the overall funding for research and development for healthcare products and services. And given that the economic burden for diseases affecting women is estimated to exceed $500 billion, now is the time for things to change.
That's where FemTech comes in. FemTech refers to software, diagnostics, products and services that use technology to improve women's lives, focusing on fertility solutions, period-tracking apps, pregnancy and nursing care, women’s sexual wellness, reproductive system health and more.
In this webinar, you'll get an in-depth overview of FemTech; current projects that are disrupting various industries and elevating women's health; and where the field is headed in the future.

The market for Internet of Things (IoT) sensors for healthcare is growing at a rate of more than 25% per year, driven by new applications for monitoring vital signs, providing alarms and notifications, feeding data to IoT platforms, and administering medical therapies. Sensors are moving in the direction of broader measurement to report on the context of medical information, increase the frequency and quality of data, and expand the degree of interactivity with data, other devices and external information available to end users. In addition, sensors are increasingly becoming part of healthcare procedures to inform medical providers of appropriate surgical remedies, disease diagnoses and determine pharmaceutical courses of treatment. Together with nascent analytic platforms, sensors are helping to automate more and more processes within healthcare systems. In this webinar, attendees will learn about the scale and scope of the market as well as segment types, drivers and restraints.
