Daniel Kraft of Singularity University - Interviewed by Alan Kohler - The Constant Investor

Published: October 31, 2016
In this week’s Spotlight interview we look into healthcare and technology, one of the key investment themes that I think we need to be on top of. And we were lucky enough to get hold of Daniel Kraft, head of medicine and neuroscience at Singularity University, and a pioneer in the convergence of healthcare and technology.
His insights into the future of medicine make vital listening for anyone interested in taking advantage of the revolution in medical technology. Daniel will be speaking at the Creative Innovation conference in Melbourne next week, but you can hear his thoughts first on this week’s The Spotlight.

Transcript:
Alan Kohler: Daniel Kraft is a pioneer in the convergence of health care and technology.
Daniel: To think a little bit downstream, where are things going to be Uber-ised? There’s a little quote we like to use a single area unit university, Uber yourself before you get KODAK-ed.
Alan Kohler: He’s the head of medicine and neuroscience at Singularity University.
Daniel: I don’t think we need to say you know robots are going to take over the job of doctors or Artificial Intelligence will take the role of a good paediatrician. I think it’s going to be a combination.
Alan Kohler: Daniel is one healthcare professional who’s not afraid of technology taking his job, in fact he’s embracing it.
