TDV Reimagines the Future of Healthcare

The Data and Digital Healthcare Revolution

As a society, we are now in what is known as the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR). A revolution that is fundamentally changing the way we live, work, and interact. Disruptive technologies are blurring the line between physical, biological, and digital worlds. These rapid advances create opportunities for us all to work smarter, more efficiently and even reimagine the future of healthcare.?

At Takeda, we’re doing just that.?Takeda Digital Ventures?(TDV) is Takeda’s Corporate Venture Capital (CVC) group investing in the?most promising value-based care companies?that are using digital capabilities to improve outcomes and experiences throughout the patient journey. We call this the “virtual first” approach.

Virtual First is the framework that leverages this data and digital revolution to establish new standards and practices that improve upon patient outcomes while providing a delightful experience for both patient and provider. This type of digital engagement is proving to deliver more comprehensive patient monitoring, better support, and ultimately improve health outcomes.

"Virtual First is the framework that leverages this data and digital revolution..."

It’s important to note that Virtual First doesn’t mean entirely replacing every in-person visit with your healthcare provider. The idea is to increase the value of those visits with augmented engagements and platform driven data by starting?first?with a virtual interaction. At TDV, we’re able to accelerate innovation by investing in companies that are changing the healthcare landscape through digital.?

Our?TDV Investment Partners?have taken multiple companies through seed to successful exit. We have deep investment and hands-on operational expertise backed by a network of Operational Partners and Advisors that offer guidance in building digital healthcare companies. When a company joins our portfolio, it opens the door to the leaders of all the value-based care companies we’ve invested in: peers that can help you achieve success.

In July, TDV hosted our portfolio company leaders and advisors in Miami, Florida for our inaugural “Innovation” event.?Our goal is to provide a creative space for our partners to share, learn, and innovate healthcare together. Yet another way Takeda is leading?the way toward better health, and a brighter future!
