Global Health Supply Chain is Having a Moment - A Covid Conversation with Expert Maeve Magner The Live Drop

    • History

In this episode we gather some expert intelligence about global health supply chains, and how they are adapting to the demands and limitations of the Covid-19 pandemic. My guest Maeve Magner is an industry renowned global health supply chain advisor who’s clients include: Foundation for New Diagnostics, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, The Global Fund, and the GAVI Vaccine Alliance.  

Maeve informs from Ireland about the fundamentals of supply chain management from manufacturing, forecasting, and distribution of testing kits, vaccines and production of PPE across the world.  From her almost thirty years of experience Maeve offers us a prognosis for how the pandemic could likely play out. The good news is that there have already been some remarkable innovations and initiatives that are helping bring this crisis under control - some of which are:
WIA – Optimization of buildings using internet of things and now being leveraged to manage the return to office
Parsyl – Risk Management via Smart Temp Monitors & Data driven insurance products 
Clinic 365 – Patient engagement platform, scaled up during covid as GPs went to virtual appointments.
Zenysis – Interoperability Platform, scaled up virtual control rooms for governments in covid response.
Wingcopter – Drone delivery company from vaccines in Vanuatu to insulin in Ireland
