Digital Health
Network effect-driven platforms in healthcare represent a $1 trillion market opportunity. These platform companies outperform pure software companies in all measures of growth, including scalability, profitability and investor value.
However, because platform companies involve multiple go-to-markets and take longer to reach profitability, they are more complex to operate and scale.
Summit Health Advisors has deep experience in healthcare, strategy and platform best practices - making us the perfect partner for companies building and scaling network effects in healthcare.
89% of digital health executives believe network effects can or do create value for their business
