With public healthcare systems under constant development, AI is emerging as a powerful tool to optimise services, enhance diagnostics and improve overall efficiency. In this special episode, recorded at the World Economic Forum in Davos, The National’s assistant editor-in-chief Rory Reynolds sat down with Mina Hamoodi, head of health care at Mubadala, to explore how artificial intelligence is transforming the global healthcare industry. Ms Hamoodi shares her insights on the gradual adoption of AI in health care, emphasising that while the technology will not replace doctors, it has the potential to alleviate many of the sector’s most pressing challenges. As an investor in innovative healthcare companies, Mubadala is focused on leveraging AI to advance medical research, streamline administrative processes and improve patient outcomes. Beyond AI, we also explore Mubadala’s global healthcare investment strategy, from the US and Europe to Asia and emerging markets. Ms Hamoodi explains how the company is helping to bridge healthcare gaps, particularly in high-growth sectors such as pharmaceuticals and biotechnology, while also bringing world-class healthcare services to the UAE.
