What do William Wallace, smart pill bottles, and pharma sales have in common?They all showed up in this week's #TheShot of #DigitalHealth Therapy. Jim Joyce and I had a chat with Innes Meldrum - Scottish-born, New Jersey-rooted CEO of AdhereTech. Innes unpacks his journey from flunking high school to running $Big brands and now cracking one of healthcare’s stickiest problems: medication adherence. We covered:
๐ค Tech vs. human behavior in adherence
๐งฉ Pharma’s paradox (have to watch to get more)
๐ง Leadership = authenticity + heart
๐ซฅ Tech must be invisible for patients
๐ Adherence is greater than acquisition in long run
Big lessons. Big heart. Big impact.
