The Problem

Proprietary Technology

= rally cry of the diabetes community

#WeAreNotWaiting

#WeAreNotWaiting… taking matters into our own hands

#WeAreNotWaiting… to improve life with diabetes

Innovation Bottleneck!

March 9, 2014:

“There’s a big missing link … and it’s called ‘data interoperability.’

“Simply put, it’s the lack of standards and formats for health data … to work seamlessly within the life of a patient with a chronic condition”

Patient (Driven) Entreprenuers “For those of us who live with this data dysfunction, two or three years can make the difference between going blind or dying in our sleep.

“It’s purely an issue of priorities and urgency!”

-Anna McCollister-Slipp, data entrepreneur & patient advocate

Patient (Driven) Entreprenuers

“Closed, proprietary systems will die. Open, standards-based, interoperable devices will thrive.

“The problem and its solution will get closer in person, space, and time. We are not waiting.”

-Lane Desborough, engineer & diabetes dad

Patient (Driven) Entreprenuers

“The aim is to make diabetes data more accessible, intuitive, and actionable…

“We’d like to get the data into a format where it can help increase time in (glucose) range, and achieve fewer lows and better A1C.” - Howard Look, CEO Tidepool
