Health.Tech Conference
Session 1 - Panel: Beyond the Buzz: Industry Perspectives on QuantumAI in Life Science
03.03.26, 14.45 - 15.30
QAI Ventures - Alexandra Beckstein
Novo Holdings - Dr. Jeroen Bakker
Pfizer - Peter Neske
Mayo Clinic - Dr. Rickey Carter
Quantum Basel - Dr. Frederik Flöther - Moderator
This 45-minute panel, hosted by QAI Ventures, explores how organizations from Life Science and Healthcare can get started with QuantumAI, today — from strategy to execution. Where should companies begin, and which capabilities are required internally? How can they engage external partners, such as startups, and how to tap into the global ecosystem? The discussion highlights use cases, how to identify them through close alignment with business unit leaders and top management, and the journey from exploration to scaled impact. Finally, we examine whether Quantum and AI are competing paradigms or complementary technologies—and what that means for long-term innovation strategy.
