Healthcare is being reshaped by powerful forces: AI, automation, demographic change, workforce pressures, shifting expectations, and the urgent need to move beyond fragmented, episodic care. Tom’s keynote, based on insights from his books Gigatrends and Reimagining Healthcare, explores the trends and uncertainties redefining how care is delivered, financed, experienced, and valued. For care-at-home leaders, these shifts are especially significant. As healthcare moves closer to the patient, the home is becoming one of the most important frontiers for innovation, continuity, prevention, chronic care management, end of life care, hospice, and human-centered support. Tom will examine how digital healthcare advocates, AI-enabled care models, and connected systems can reduce friction for clinicians, patients, families, and caregivers while improving outcomes and strengthening the value of home-based care. Most of all, Tom will challenge attendees to rethink healthcare’s social narrative: from one focused narrowly on cost to one centered on value, dignity, access, independence, and the essential role healthcare plays in our economic and social well-being. Attendees will leave with a compelling vision of the future and practical strategies to lead with agility, creativity, and confidence in this new era of care.
Tom Koulopoulos is the author of thirteen books and founder of Delphi Group, a 30-year-old Boston-based think tank, which was named one of the fastest growing private companies in the U.S. by Inc. Magazine. Delphi provides strategic advice to Global 2000 organizations and government agencies. Tom is also a columnist for Inc.com, an adjunct professor at the Boston University Graduate School of Management, the founder and past Executive Director of the Babson College Center for Business Innovation, and past Executive Director of the Dell Innovation Lab. Named one of the industry’s most influential consultants by InformationWeek magazine, Tom’s articles and market insights appear frequently in national and international print and broadcast media. Geoff James of CBS Interactive Media called Tom “one of the truly deep thinkers in the arena of technology and culture.” Forbes.com named Tom one of its Business Visionaries with “an incisive view of world trade…” His work has been praised by luminaries such as Tom Peters who called his writing “a brilliant vision of where we must take our enterprises to survive and thrive.” And according to the late Peter Drucker, Tom’s writing “makes you question not only the way you run your business but the way you run yourself.” His ability to translate emerging tech, especially AI, into a compelling vision of the future sets him apart. Tom’s unique blend of experience, insight, and inspiration focuses on how technology enhances human connections, creativity, and value creation, making his presentations timely and deeply impactful.
