Melissa LuVisi, entrepreneur, advocate, and Chief Strategy Officer at tab32, a cloud-based healthcare technology platform for the dental industry, has joined the invitation-only Newsweek Expert Forum. LuVisi brings her unique perspective on business leadership, industry disruption, and technology innovation to the group.
“I am excited to join the Newsweek Expert Forum and engage in thoughtful conversations alongside my peers,” said LuVisi. “I see dentistry creating a path for future healthcare technologies. Dental is often left out of the national conversation, yet it is well established that oral healthcare is a key indicator of our general health. Dentistry’s late adoption of technology has primed the industry for unprecedented innovation. Simply put, today’s technology is better than what medical adopted in the 1990s. I look forward to using this new platform to help engage the nation in these extremely important and relevant conversations.”
