At TIF 2025 – The Future of Innovation is AI – our CEO, Clay Wilemon, moderated a panel alongside industry leaders Bill Carpou (CEO of Octane) and Kathleen Peters (Chief Innovation Officer at Experian) during the launch of the AI Innovation Hub.
Positioning the Region as a National AI Model
Leaders from Octane and Experian explored how the new AI Innovation Hub is positioning Orange County as a national model for tech-enabled growth, responsible development, and cross-sector collaboration. The session covered how coordinated access to talent, capital, education, data, customers, policy and clinical innovation is fueling the region’s AI evolution.
AI’s Impact on Healthcare Fraud Detection
The discussion highlighted AI’s transformative potential across industries, including its significant impact on healthcare fraud detection and Special Investigation Unit (SIU) performance. Healthcare SIU teams face overwhelming data volumes, high false positive rates, and limited investigative resources—challenges that AI technology can help overcome.
Cross-Sector Collaboration
The panel demonstrated the value of cross-industry perspectives in advancing AI innovation. When leaders from financial services, enterprise data solutions, and healthcare technology share insights, they uncover new approaches to implementing AI across diverse sectors..
The Collaborative Innovation Model
The Tech Innovation Forum’s approach reflects a broader trend toward collaborative innovation ecosystems. By bringing together diverse industry leaders, events like TIF foster the cross-sector partnerships that drive meaningful AI advancement.
This model is especially relevant for healthcare organizations implementing AI for fraud detection, as it allows them to learn from successful applications in other industries while contributing their own insights to the wider innovation community.
