how will it impact our lives ?

technology - what has it &


Technology: etymology greek - meaning skillful application of an art. The practical application of science in commerce or industry.


Technology: the pace of change is not linear its exponential. Adoption rate is increasing similarly.

Gordon MooreCo-Founder of IntelNumber of transistors on a chipwill double every two years. “Moore’s Law”


Technology is accelerating in all areas. We are just seeking the start - knee of the curve.


Internet: The free exchange of information with limited constraints.

-Commercial Internet began only 5,300 days ago-Serves over 1.5 Billion people-79% of US adult population-40% of US consumers usesearch engines for comparativeshopping



The “Grid” Becoming Increasingly Integrated


Mobility: Communication & information when ever and where ever the customer wants it.

Mobile Internet Access:Pew - 56% of US AdultsIncrease of 73% in 17 months


Mobile speeds will increase ...........


Devices - getting smaller and more powerful.

The ability to increasingly and more easily integrate technology into daily life is upon us.


Internet will become more intelligent ...........

We ALL Understand the Challenges. Consider...

• 23% of Americans participate in no physical activity*

• 62% of Americans obese or overweight -18% rise in last decade.*

• 23% of Americans still smoke. 3000 start each day.*

• 78% of men eat vegetables less than three times per day. *

• 75% - 90% of visits to Primary Care Physicians are for stress.**

* Centers for Disease Control** Murphy, American Journal of Health Promotion


THE COST IS BANKRUPTING OUR NATION


Initiatives to Impact Wellness Lack Participation

Lifestyle Choices are THE Key Driver

How Can We Overcome These

Challenges ? engagement, incentives &accountability

To Achieve Mission in this new world......

Product = Experience

Price = New Value Exchanges or Incentives

Place = Marriage of Digital & Physical 24/7

Promotion = Conversation or Engagement


Think in terms of a private sector business.....

Organizations are evaluating traditional modalities......in fact almost everything is being reevaluated.


Promotion = Conversation

Conversation = Web 2.0

Organizational Models = “Socialnomics”



It is about the customer - not about us
