Many of you have asked how we are different from our competitors, and we have provided specific information on how we are different from other [Suspicious link removed]panies in the health space. Frank and I just returned from the Distributed Health conference, where every company that is involved in blockchain and health was in attendance. There are lots of great ideas brewing out there, but it is clear that this is still a nascent field with tons of room for innovation and growth.

Having seen what's out there, I can say that there are a few areas where BurstIQ has developed technologies that are completely novel:

1. Informed Consent: traditional smart contracts can handle simple transactions, but BurstIQ's Consent Contract layer can create complex smart contracts where data has multiple owners, permission can be revoked or limited to a subset of a person's LifeGraph, permission can be granted to groups or definitions of groups rather than specific individuals, etc. This is something we heard over and over is essential for managing health data, and BurstIQ is the only company that has enabled and fully deployed this.

2. Ecosystem: There are a few companies looking to put health (or in some cases, just medical) data on blockchain - either for operations / supply chain management or as a personal health record. BurstIQ is the only company that is putting health data (broadly defined) on blockchain and then establishing an ecosystem that allows people to control and gain value from their own data, and allows companies and individuals to create partnerships, market products, buy products, collaborate on research projects, create B2B services, and more. This is another aspect of our platform that many attendees told us was desperately needed in the healthcare industry.

3. BurstIQ is the only company that has applied Big Data capabilities to the core blockchain, which means that a) the platform can handle large data volumes industry-wide level rather than needing to build separate (siloed) instances that can only handle a limited amount of data, and b) the platform can apply machine learning, real-time data analytics, AI and other tools to the data, which opens up a whole world of possible uses of the data.

A few other factors that set us apart:
1. We have paying customers, a strong customer pipeline and are profitable.
2. With our partnerships with Empiric Health and iCan Benefit Group, we will bring in hundreds of thousands of LifeGraphs, millions of data transactions and large portfolios of consumer products on the Ecosystem.
3. Our platform is fully operational - we are not just a whitepaper or vaporware looking for start-up funding.

"iCan has consistently been rated as one of the top insurance sales firms in the country. They were pioneers in the use of bundled benefits and we are thrilled to be collaborating with them to transform health access,” says Frank Ricotta, chief executive at BurstIQ. “There is so much buzz about how blockchain might be able to change the healthcare industry. This is a perfect example of how it is changing the industry.”

Smith and Crown Press Release



"We are honored that the independent analysts at Smith & Crown had this to say about us: “BurstIQ plans to provide a marketplace for exchanging health information and offering products and services, where control and access rights over the data lies with the individual who can choose with whom to share their data and for how long, or whether to sell their data or donate it to a project or study they support. This represents an innovate aspect of the platform, insofar as it represents a unique intersection where Individuals, research institutions, and pharmaceutical or other medical related companies can identify either studies they would like to participate in or appropriate subject populations for trials and research projects.”

Check out what else Smith and Crown had to say about us here!

The market for health data is huge. We see many aims for gwtting datas of many target groups and customers/patients, who are giving out these datas for little benefits.

A whole genome sequence test generates 80-100GB per person.  We've only just begun to witness the power of precision medicine based on these tests and those that will follow.   By 2020 Health data will exceed 2,300 EB. 

We believe each person should own their own and control their own data.  It's the only way to put power back in our hands.

Hi BurstIQ

In the first page of the announcement the link for the Greek translation is wrong, it's pointing at the Spanich one.
Please correct it with this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2129849.0


Thanks

How much has been raised so far? Can not find any information about this on your official website.

As for me, I prefer BurstIQ, than its competitors like Patientory, etc. Healthcare can reach new heights through the BurstIQ platform. The Burst IQ is the 1st step of improving the quality of care for health system all over the world. Good project!

The far majority of our sales have been through private agreements for tokens and not through the normal Ethereum contract transaction.  This seems to be the way token sales are going at this time.  We will try to provide some number soon.  Overall, the sale is going very well.

yes, with blockchain it is easy for people to access and use their health data and to control how their data is used, the challenge is how hospitals adopt this idea, as they have the data in hand
