July 13 TLV: Reducing Healthcare FRICTION
Herzog Law, 6 Yitzhak Sade, 2nd Floor, Tel Aviv, ILPlease RSVP on LUMA: https://luma.com/vupggbu5
We are living through one of the most consequential periods in health history. AI, digital therapeutics, predictive analytics, medical devices, gene therapy and biopharma innovation are advancing at remarkable speed. Yet if innovation alone were enough, clinicians would feel less burdened, patients would move through the system more easily, and adoption would match the pace of possibility. That is not happening.
For years, the greatest challenge facing health innovation was securing investment and reimbursement codes. Those remain important. Yet the larger challenge today is friction. Friction lives in workflows, siloed systems, leadership indecision and in the moments when technology forgets the human experience it is meant to serve.
On Monday, July 13th, Gil Bashe, FINN Partners Chair Global Health & Purpose, will expand on a central theme from his bestselling book, Healing the Sick Care System: Why People Matter, sharing examples of startups, health system leaders and innovators succeeding because they reduce the operational, clinical and human barriers that burden clinicians and hinder patient care.
The lecture will be followed by a thirty minute “Reducing the Healthcare Friction” panel discussion featuring leading HealthTech investors sharing real world examples, including Edge Medical Ventures, Entree Capital, aMoon Fund, Johnson & Johnson CVC and others.
Date: Monday, July 13th, 10am
Venue: Herzog law firm, 6 Sadeh, TLV
Speakers: Gil Bashe, Edna Lazar, Shai Poliker, Yael Gruenbaum-Cohen, Roy Wiesner

Introduction, Goel Jasper, FINN IsraelEd Marx, Keynote I (30 minutes):
Tech that Cares....Empathy Enabled Transformation
Strong business services and products are not enough. Visionary leadership is not a solution. Robust digital cores only create a foundation. However, when each dynamic is in sync with one another, business outcomes grossly outperform individual unit contributions. You move from pockets of brilliance to an enterprise of excellence. How do you create this intimate alignment in environments of complexity and unite tech with business? I will share six common critical success factors I discovered amongst three different best in class organizations where I served as CxO… Vision, Governance & Alignment. Intentional Relationships, Scaling Leadership, Shared Performance Objectives, Cross Pollination and Business Integration. The thread that binds them together is Tech that Cares.Ed Marx, Keynote II (30 minutes):
Reaching the C-Suite…Five Hacks
Everyone strives to get face time with decision makers. Especially those at the top. Getting in front of key decision makers with P&L responsibilities is key. After serving 20 years in the C-Suite of hospitals, I faced a cold reality when I jumped to the supplier side. Nobody wanted to see me. Leveraging my experiences on both sides of the dyad, I figured out a few hacks that opened doors and led to partnerships.Coffee Break (20 min)
