Gartner’s Maverick Research: East Meets West — The Convergence of Big Data, Quantified Self and Traditional Chinese Medicine
Gartner’s Maverick Research: East Meets West — The Convergence of Big Data, Quantified Self and Traditional Chinese Medicine
Summary
Digital leaders should examine and learn how the latest technologies are transforming a “backward” industry like TCM into a digital business. (Maverick research deliberately exposes unconventional thinking and may not agree with Gartner’s official positions.)
Key Findings and Recommendations
- Quantified-Self Technologies Can Add to the TCM Knowledge Base, While Big Data Technologies Can Assist With the Refinement of TCM’s Treatment Model
- TCM Is Focused on Patient Outcomes and Personalized Medicine: The Era of Mass Customization
- TCM and Modern Medicine Are Starting to Find Common Ground
評論:
今年主流媒體、西醫醫療體系、高科技公司開始大量關注中醫,就連Gartner這家老字號的IT市場分析公司也發表了一篇關於中醫與科技的文章。這篇文章的作者、Gartner分析師花了不少時間採訪我,我解釋了不少我對中醫與科技結合的想法,也介紹他去採訪台灣工研院裡有關中醫軟體系統的部門。不過,很可惜,無法和讀者分享這篇文章,因為Gartner就是靠這些市場分析文章賺錢的,即使文章採訪我,我也沒有免費拿到一份,其他人更不用說,得花錢買Gartner的文章!這就像我常說的,中醫遲早會在世界主流變得很熱門,但是,如果華人中醫只知道獨善其身,如果中國人自己不推廣不支持中醫,最後在世界主流主導中醫與從中獲利的,不會是中國人,而是精於金融的猶太人,以及精於市場行銷的美國人。
