Techniques such as AI and Machine Learning are creating new opportunities for healthcare and changing the way that people interact with health services.

Evolving around the trending theme of sustainability, the dialogue at this year’s Decoded Future Summit in London brought together voices that echo within the tech, fashion and economy industries.
