with featured speaker Anish Sebastian, CEO and Co-Founder, Babyscripts
With the increase in the adoption of remote and virtual health technologies as a result of COVID, there has been unquestionable improvements in access to care. Yet, major systemic issues still persist, across the contiguity of care. We will look at how technology in partnership with care teams can create meaningful improvements in the maternity care journey.

Anish co-founded Babyscripts in 2014 with the vision that internet-enabled medical devices and big data would transform the delivery of pregnancy care.
