Hopes for big data relating to physical processes has brought with it expectations around solving some of society’s most intractable issues; the mass collection of ‘personal’ data has ushered in a new kind of data-specific politics as it becomes increasingly apparent that data technologies are invading the most intimate and controversial parts of our personal and social lives. At the heart of this project is a programme of 30 workshops, held in different countries, across different continents, with 25 expert participants drawn from across the data landscape. These included relevant delegates from large multi-national companies, regional organisations, start-ups, universities, NGOs, think-tanks,…

We are witnessing a growing revolution around the provision of healthcare. Much is being driven by the proliferation of medical data and the technology that supports this. As the pressures on healthcare providers continue to escalate, the better collection, management and use of more patient-specific information provides a significant opportunity for innovation and change. The Future Agenda team made this, the Future of Patient Data, the focus of our major Open Foresight project for 2017/18 – 12 discussions across 11 countries, gathering views from over 300 experts. This report shares the findings from the Future of Patient Data research project. It…

The value of data is an issue of interest to many. In a world where multiple systems are being transformed by digital, there are a host of organisations rushing to capitalise on the opportunity. They are not only digitising their businesses and creating new digital business models and platforms, but within this many are also seeing that their future value lies in data on which such models depend. This is common to a wide range of sectors and is evidently fuelling a ‘data land grab’ by many. There is however an important underlying question that has not yet been clearly addressed. This…

The research for the Future of Patient Data project has now been completed and the final report is being prepared for publication in April. Eight events in the final quarter of 2017 brought together leading experts across Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia to identify the key shifts taking place around how patient data is being generated, used, owned and accessed. Some of the interim insights were shared in November. In January we added in perspectives from experts in four more locations in Toronto, Boston, San Francisco and Frankfurt. We now have a unique global view not only of…

As digital change accelerates in and around many sectors, we will explore emerging technological, social, business model and regulatory shifts and how and where they may most impact over the next decade. As with our other deep-dives, each event will bring together industry leaders, academics, regulators and innovators to challenge the emerging view, add in regional perspectives and identify what, where, how and why key changes will probably play out. All hosts will co-curate the participant invite list, be able to use all insights from their events for thought leadership and PR, will gain access to all views and underlying research…

Now that we have completed the first four of our global discussions on the future of patient data, it is clear that this topic is complex, interconnected and can viewed through many different lenses – including geographic and sectoral. Having begun in Dubai, expert workshops in Johannesburg, Oslo and Brussels have all provided informed perspectives on some of the primary drivers of change for the next decade and delved in depth into some of those that have the potential for greatest impact. As we prepare for the next workshop in Singapore tomorrow and then move on to Sydney and Mumbai,…

It has taken time, but today many experts have finally recognized not only the potential for Africa’s growth but also the possibility that its success in skipping over out of date technologies may well evolve into leading in new areas. Some have already started to embrace the concept of “Africa 4.0” and are positioning the continent, in all its variety, as a potential leader in the 4th industrial revolution. But what assumptions are being made to come to such a conclusion and what are some of the future implications? Digital technology provides global opportunities, so how can Africa take advantage…

Building on our exploration of the future of currency, payments and collaboration as part of the 2015 global Future Agenda programme, we have recently kicked off another deep dive. This is focused on the future of banking – and particularly retail banking. We aim to explore emerging technological, social, business model and regulatory changes and how and where they may most impact the sector over the next decade. With so many potential shifts from block-chain, alternative currencies, AI and rising automation to more peer-to-peer networks, open banking, new organisational structures, personal data managers and enhanced financial inclusion, there are many possible…

Over the next few months the Future Agenda team is leading discussions around the world to bring together different views on the future of patient data. We are looking at how evolutions in data creation, availability and sharing are reshaping the way personal health and patient data is managed and are providing individuals with greater autonomy, control and access to their health information – while simultaneously ensuring improved safety and security. These discussions between leaders in their field will explore how the emerging shifts may evolve and with what implications. They will build on an initial perspective and associated presentation…
