Globerian and The University of Utah will work together to identify and explore ideas and technologies that can be co-developed to rapidly improve the collection and transfer of health information and provide more efficient healthcare practice management.
Jon Huntsman, Utah State Governor, Dr. Naveen Trehan, CEO of Globerian, and Jack Brittain, vice president University of Utah Technology Venture Development, participated in the MoU signing ceremony in New Delhi, India.
The partnership between the two entities is designed to open new doors of opportunity for Globerian and contributes to its rapid growth.
