auditdata
A podcast series for hearing care professionals, who want get inside the head of our industry. We have invited top industry thought-leaders to discuss hearing care of tomorrow. The purpose is to move our conservative industry forward by sharing knowledge and be inspired.
Players in the hearing industry are operating with extremely high margins and until now we've seen relatively low competition levels but the landscape is changing. In this episode, we discuss how our industry is growing, new competition such as Specsavers, Jabra and Apple are entering the industry, and low cost-options is coming.
What does this mean for the profits?
- Can we still expect the high profit margins?
- Will productivity increase with the entrance of new technologies?
- Will consumers question the price of hearing aids?
- Will new large players such as Costco or Apple push the price of hearing aids?
We have invited 3 key experts to discuss this very interesting topic:
- Peter Bjørnskov, CEO from Dansk Hørecenter (Part of The GN Group)
- Steen Thygesen, CEO from Audientes (Provider of smart, self-fitting and affordable hearing aids)
- Kurt Bager, CEO from Auditdata
Host: Sebastian Wrona
The first topic of our podcast series "Hearing Care of Tomorrow" is about the role of the audiologist in hearing care. Our industry has yet to react to the changes around us - such as:
- New technologies have been implemented.
- AI and Machine learning has affected the way the industry is constantly optimizing their daily operations.
- New places where you can buy the products has been enabled. You can buy glasses and medicine in every consumer store all around the world.
How will this effect the role of the audiologist going forward?
3 experts from the industry have discussed this in our first episode:
- Chris Auty from Sonova Group,
- Astrid Haastrup, Audiologist and Clinical Director from Auditdata
- Christoffer Spangenberg, CCO from Auditdata.
