    It's time to Think Forward on Day 2 of Leaders Conference

    Gather round, partners! We've got quite a day ahead β€” make sure you get fueled up at breakfast (7:00 to 8:30 a.m. on Level 2 in the Session Hallway) and then a Coffee Break at 9:00 a.m. after the first series of education sessions. Now that we've got that out of the way, here's the rest of what we think should be on your dance card:

    AI in healthcare: Yes, it's a big deal

Dean Grand Ballroom. Dr. Cullen's expertise in updating business models in healthcare based on changing consumer culture and advancements in AI is a great encapsulation of the state of the industry.
