The book sets out to describe the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity we have with the Covid-19 pandemic, a bigger disruptor than even technology itself, to change how we view health – and the steps we need to take to protect it as our greatest asset. The book describes how we can harness data to understand why Covid has impacted people in poor health and in deprived areas most, how to equip ourselves better and build resilience in time for the next pandemic, and live our best lives in a post-Covid-19 world. FROM THE AUTHOR With all the work I have been doing in AI, data, healthy ageing, and now in longevity, one key thing keeps coming up over and over again- the important role of citizens. Ultimately the public will shape the future. Normal people need to be brought more into the debate on how technology could be more powerfully deployed as a force for good, to cope far better when the next pandemic hits and until then, to help us live longer better. We all need to participate in decisions that could ultimately shape a better society- at all levels- whether individually for personal reasons, at a community level for civic duty or through votes at a national level. The book sets out the arguments for why we need a societal system more focused on social capital, more guided by values that matter most to us. The pandemic is showing how our health is our greatest asset- more than GDP. The book aims to educate, inform, inspire and catalyze action to improve health for all. It will hopefully motivate people to take more interest in critical issues affecting us: ethical use of technology, our role in data sharing, developing our own heath resilience and that of our communities.

As the leader of this disruptive health revolution, Suna has steered Nightingale into an established growth company with over 90 team members and customers in over 20 countries. Since late 2015, Suna has raised over €40 million to bring Nightingale’s technology to global healthcare. Suna signed up to be an entrepreneur when he was just 21. Since then he has been at the forefront of health tech ventures. He was leading healthcare IT solutions at Fujitsu Finland as the Chief Technology Officer when he decided to expand his horizon with computational medicine research, leading him to start Nightingale. Suna believes innovation is found between disciplines. His credence is reflected in both the product and the people at Nightingale who come from a diverse background to further push the boundaries of the health industry. The goal, however, is the same — to make preventive health a reality for 8 billion people on this planet. https://www.livelongerbetter.org/thomas-balkizas-biography daily 0.75 2020-09-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f54b5d2dde85f70c979fc4e/1599577474983-05SM001721SB1L7SA28B/Thomas+Balkizas.JPG Thomas Balkizas Biography - Thomas Balkizas Thomas Balkizas has a wealth of experience in leadership and consulting for Global Healthcare, Life Sciences and Technology businesses.
