Predictions for 2025: Artificial Intelligence in Modern Drug Development, Quantum-Proof Encryption, and Health Data Monetization.

Abstract

We are witnessing an unprecedented convergence of scientific discoveries, technology innovations, exponential adoption of technology, and remarkable population demographic shifts towards a digitally native society. The Nobel Prizes in medicine, chemistry, and physics awarded this year further validate the profound impact of technology on healthcare and life sciences. For 2025, designated by the United Nations as The Year of Quantum Technology, we envision further technology-driven innovations in all domains, triggering the transition to a novel health ecosystem. The role of artificial technology in modern drug development, the demand for quantum-proof encryption, and the opportunities of blockchain in health data monetization are all trends that can be disruptive for pharma, healthcare, and healthcare finance.
