Podcast #2: Consumer Driven Healthcare - Positive Realism

Commentary
Maeve Lyons

Experience is what you get when you can’t get what you want

In this episode, Robert talks about the firms consumer health thesis and explores what companies like Livongo are doing to scale - how startups should work with corporates (and vice versa) and how to stop 'pilotitis'.

As a boy Robert Garber dreamed of being a flying firefighter.  He narrowly avoided law school at last minute and decided to teach himself to code.  After securing his first programming role he quickly progressed to a developer, from there into product management, finance and sales before moving into the CEO seat.  He spent 10 years as an operator and then moved into investing which he has been doing for the last 22 years.   

Robert has been part of the HealthXL community for many years, joining our Global Gatherings across the US and Europe advising companies and entrepreneurs. Recently he contributed to HealthXL's 12 Commandments for Startup and Corporate Relationships where we had a mixed group from different healthcare sectors collaborate and share their best practices for working together. Later this year he will present at the HealthXL-Frontiers Health Shanghai Gathering on September 25th 2019 where we explore opportunities in Chinese healthcare, smart cities and smart hospitals and how Chinese healthcare is embracing AI.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
