More than 463 million people worldwide suffer from diabetes, and this is expected to reach close to 600 million in 10 years. The diabetes device industry is unique in that technologies available to monitor and manage diabetes are starting to converge with consumer electronics technology. As such, the decision dynamics are evolving; patients have a stronger voice in therapy choice, care is transitioning away from specialists, and the role of artificial intelligence is elevating care.
