Join Borderless Live this coming Wednesday, in conversation with Naomi Fried, Ph.D. Founder, and CEO of Health Innovation Strategies,
An innovator and digital health thought-leader, Naomi brings clarity and fresh perspectives to the digital health revolution and where it’s headed.
Naomi will stress the four key digital trends that will impact every participant along the health care value chain.
Naomi advises large healthcare organizations on their innovation programs and digital health strategies based on a wealth of expertise as the first VP of Innovation and External Partnerships at Biogen and earlier as the first Chief Innovation Officer at Boston Children’s Hospital.
If you participate at any point in the healthcare value chain, this is a session not to miss.

I was never worried about the work getting done. I knew it would. The work didn’t stop when I left the office. The guilt came from the belief, that tending to anything personal during business hours, urgent or not, could be read as a lack of commitment.

Remote work often cultivates surprisingly strong connections between colleagues who may never meet in person. Physical distance can concentrate relationships, making asynchronous communication more deliberate and meaningful. Time zones foster unique rhythms, where thoughtful written exchanges build sustained mental presence and a deep sense of being understood.
