Summary
Dr. Tarun Kapoor critiques health tech conferences for their stagnation and lack of meaningful engagement, arguing that they often lead to superficial discussions rather than valuable insights. He likens the experience to "Groundhog Day," as attendees frequently find mundane interactions overshadowing the initial excitement of participation. Kapoor advocates for alternative mediums, like podcasts, which can offer deeper, more informative conversations on important topics in healthcare technology, pointing to successful interviews as examples of the richer content available outside traditional panels. This shift could indicate a broader need for industry professionals to seek out more impactful ways to share knowledge and foster innovation.
