Why collaboration is important
Why collaboration is important
Why collaboration is important
Why collaboration is important
Healthcare problems are too big to be solved by
just one firm
Large companies can’t innovate internally without
a burning platform
Start-ups (source of innovation) can’t scale on their own

Collaboration is easy to say but hard to do
We created HealthXL because new types of collaboration are needed
