IBM Think on Cloud (3)

Hisao Tanaka, President and Chief Executive Officer, Toshiba Corporation and Bernard J. Tyson, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Kaiser Permanente discuss new infrastructures driving new business models with Frank Gens, Senior Vice President & Chief Analyst, IDC at the 2014 IBM THINK Forum.

Failure of Toshiba machines can have reverberating impact on both hospital and patient, so Tanaka-san looks to technology like the cloud to ensure that such failure does not occur.  Tyson and Kaiser Permanente aim to provide the safest hospital milieu, and rely as well on technology to make big, systemic improvements, rather than incremental change, concerning safety.
