Alfred Poor, Ph.D., the Health Tech Futurist, understands how technology will save healthcare. Chronic conditions such as heart disease and diabetes cost us billions every year, yet we make little progress on improving the situation. He shows how wearables and connected devices drive employee wellness and productivity, help seniors live safely within their own homes, and benefit everyone with more convenient and effective healthcare. Devices such as the Apple Watch and Fitbit, wearable glucose meters, and Internet-connected home monitors are already using artificial intelligence to identify disease faster so treatment can start sooner, producing better outcomes.

Dr. Poor’s keynote topics include inspirational and provocative views on how technology is disrupting traditional healthcare models for the better. He relies on data-driven analysis to show how employers can apply digital health technology to produce significant returns on investment in employee fitness incentive programs. He weaves global trends and innovation into a compelling fabric of change that will drive down healthcare costs and improve outcomes so that people can live happier, healthier, and more productive lives.

Dr. Poor has built his career on decoding complex technology in ways that audiences at different levels can understand and put to immediate use. Audiences applaud his energy and humor, and they appreciate the way he relates his content to familiar concepts. He has a broad grasp of digital health developments and the impact they will have on healthcare in the U.S. and worldwide. His disruptive vision of healthcare’s future is solidly grounded in facts and figures, case studies, and the latest research from labs around the world.
