Knowledge changes everything. In a world where science, technology, and AI are converging, knowing isn't just about information-it's about unlocking possibilities that redefine what's achievable for humanity. For those of us at the intersection of health and technology, this knowledge becomes action: accelerating discovery, streamlining processes, and strengthening connections that bring hope and healing to millions.

That's why we launched " The Power of Knowing ," a video series hosted by our Chief Digital and Technology Officer, Lidia Fonseca, which explores how AI is unlocking innovation that was previously out of reach. The series features interviews with the people leading the charge across industries and shares their unique perspectives on the myriad ways AI is transforming our world.

In our new episode, Julie Sweet, Accenture CEOand one of the most influential voices on how AI is reshaping business and leadership, joins Lidia to discuss how and why leaders must adopt a 'reinvention' mindset when it comes to AI, in order to drive growth, inclusion, and lasting impact. As Chair and CEO of Accenture, Julie continues to challenge companies to rethink how they work in an AI-driven world, and she shares insights both practical and profound throughout this engaging conversation.
