Frost & Sullivan applauds Blackford’s visionary implementation of platform-based approaches before the competition and then bringing its experience to become a leading AI marketplace today. We laud Blackford’s approach of striking a balance with its unique approach that benefits the entire industry, and believe that the Blackford marketplace is ideal for enhancing adoption of validated AI solutions globally because of its large installed base.”
Ben Panter, CEO, Blackford said
“We are delighted that Frost & Sullivan has recognized Blackford’s leadership in the area of platform technology for the deployment and management of AI software in healthcare. Individual deployment of medical imaging applications and AI algorithms is a costly and lengthy process, and our goal is to make it faster, easier, and less costly for healthcare organizations to access the latest technologies that can help them improve patient outcomes and business operations for providers.”
