Each client experience is tailored and customized to meet the desired business outcomes with maximized benefit from these emerging technologies.

โ€œThe future of healthcare will increasingly involve digital technologies and solutions designed to transform the healthcare industry by providing a streamlined patient/provider experience and ultimately improving patient outcomes,โ€ said Greg Corlis, Principal inย KPMGโ€™s Emerging Technology group. โ€œUpgrading to a private 5G network with Verizon at Lakehouse will help us and our clients embrace and experiment with emerging technologies.โ€
