Much like the decline of civilizations chronicled by Jared Diamond, traditional hospitals, once viewed as bastions of healing, are on the brink of an existential collapse.

Same executive board, different roles. Historically, that’s been how CIOs and CMOs work and operate across a company. But as we close out 2024, this siloed approach must come to an end. For brands to be more relevant, competitive, and innovative in 2025, they need to identify and invest in opportunities for synergy and collaboration between these two roles. After all, the CIO and the CMO will be the most powerful voices in the room in 2025.
