AHIP’s 2014 Institute in Seattle featured speakers who are breaking the mold in their industries. Whether at Oscar, Trader Joe’s, REI, Nordstrom, or Civis Analytics, these speakers told the thousands of health care stakeholders who gathered in Seattle that “innovation is about taking risks,” and that they should “unleash the power of consumers.”
As Cambia Health CEO Mark Ganz said, “The Pacific Northwest is where innovators are rewriting the playbook for health care,” and highlighted companies who are thinking outside the box every day.
When REI spoke about team members being “merchants of joy,” attendees questioned:
@REI is about connecting people to others and to nature. They are merchants of joy. How can we be merchants of health? #AHIPInstitute
