Riyadh, Saudi Arabia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 14, 2024) - Taylor Capito, co-founder of GenRAIT, a pioneering SaaS platform transforming life sciences through artificial intelligence, was a featured speaker at the FII 8th Edition 2024: Infinite Horizons: Investing Today, Shaping Tomorrow. The prestigious global summit in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, gathered leading minds from around the world to explore how today's investments shape the future of business, science, and society. By convening world-class scientific and business personalities, the annual conference aims to foster cooperation in pursuit of cutting-edge innovation.
In her address, Capito underscored the critical role collaboration plays in addressing the world's most pressing healthcare challenges, the transformative power of data, and rapid AI innovation as solutions. In an industry that is highly protective of technical capabilities derived from some of the most personal data on the planet, Capito emphasized the future of health-tech innovation through curated data, bespoke data security, world-class AI, and cooperation among like-minded companies. The summit's theme aligned with GenRAIT's mission to accelerate scientific discovery through a collaborative, AI-driven software company that supports scientists in tackling the most complex healthcare issues.
Speakers Panel: How Can Health Startups Drive Innovation with Data at Scale?
Capito joined Will Ahmed (co-founder and CEO of WHOOP), Joshua Fink (founder of Luma Group), Morad Fareed (founder of Delos and FC Mother), and Nisa Leung (managing partner, Qiming Venture Partners) for a panel discussion on the role data will play in the future of healthcare innovation.

Capito commented on the missed potential for rapid innovation in scientific research, expressing her belief that positive healthcare outcomes could be produced more rapidly by properly harnessing data and AI. "Everyone here has struggled with a health issue, likely a chronic one. The time horizon for discovering new treatments is 15 years or more, so we're not seeing the advances we should, given the available technology. Insights aren't being uncovered-not due to any fault of scientific researchers, but because the field has advanced so rapidly."
When asked how GenRAIT helps scientists leverage data at scale, Capito explained:
"There are 3 billion data points in the genome. That's a lot of information. GenRAIT's current product provides researchers and bioinformaticians with tools to make better use of that data more efficiently. If the researcher is the chef, we at GenRAIT are fully stocked with the ingredients and tools they can use to start making analyses and discoveries now. They don't need to go to a supermarket, so to speak-everything they need to make analyses and discoveries is there: the computational infrastructure, the data, the tools, and more." -Taylor Capito, CEO of GenRAIT
