Innovation is a messy process – hard to manage and even harder to measure. When revenues and earnings decline during a crisis, it’s easy write off your innovation efforts as ‘too risky’ or ‘just not worth it’. But if this year has taught us anything – it’s that when done right, innovation is our secret weapon against market slowdowns and a beacon for rejuvenating growth.

Tech in Motion is proud to bring you a 3-part mini-series all about disrupting your growth strategies for 2021 – covering a range of topics from product innovation to technology leadership, hiring and culture strategies – you won’t want to miss what our panel of award-winning thought leaders have to say.

About Ro:
Ro is the only telehealth company to integrate a nationwide physician network with a nationwide pharmacy network. This enables Ro to handle everything for a patient for the conditions it treats and to improve continuity of care by seamlessly connecting providers and pharmacists. Ro has built its own telehealth platform from the ground-up, including a custom EMR, pharmacy operating system, and online platform allowing for continuous communication by phone, video or secure messaging between providers and patients. Today, this full-stack approach powers three digital health clinics — Roman for men’s health, Rory for women’s health, and Zero for smoking cessation. Through these clinics, Ro provides a personalized, end-to-end telehealth experience from online treatment to the delivery of medication to ongoing care for nearly 20 conditions from weight loss to smoking cessation to sexual health.

About Valqari:
Valqari’s foresight in identifying the need for Drone Landing Stations and overcoming numerous obstacles in taking that idea to market, demonstrates both the agility and resilience required to turn a startup into a success story. Valqari has pivoted in response to both threats and opportunities, and now has a global footprint, with partners and allies from Australia, South Africa, Europe, Canada and across the US. From 2 partners in a small office in Plainfield, IL, the company has grown to over 20 members, responding to opportunities to bring manufacturing in house, expanding into international markets and developing the product from a basic landing pad, to a whole system- connected to the IoT.
