Datavant, the data collaboration platform trusted for healthcare, is today announcing the second in its series of free tech talks — called Unplugged.
The Unplugged series was started by Datavant late last year and was designed to spark conversations and share insights among the tech community in Galway and beyond.
The events bring together technology professionals and business leaders who are driving technology investment decisions and executing strategies.
The topic for the March 4 event is ‘Product Development within a Tech-Forward Organisation’ with product experts from the U.S. attending to share their insights and answer audience questions.
Datavant Chief Product Officer, Sam Diederich, is hosting this event and will lead the discussion with Datavant Chief Technology Officer Josh Builder, also offering his experience.
Two special guests at the March 4 event are Datavant’s Andrea Kowalski, SVP Product Provider Solutions and Nausheen Moulana, SVP Engineering, Provider Products, who will discuss their personal career journeys across engineering and product development.
Andrea Kowalski leads innovation in interoperability, patient access, and provider-focused technology. With more than 15 years’ experience in healthcare tech at companies like Tebra and athenahealth, she has been recognised among the Top 25 Women Leaders in Healthcare Software and Top 25 Software Product Executives. A founding member of CHIEF, Andrea is passionate about advancing women in leadership and using technology to transform healthcare delivery.
Nausheen Moulana has more than 20 years of experience scaling enterprise SaaS platforms, with deep expertise in data innovation, agile product delivery, and building high-performing engineering teams. Her career spans ethics and compliance, healthcare, enterprise search, and scientific computing. Before joining Datavant, Nausheen served as CTO at Ethisphere, where she led the company’s transition from a services-led organisation to a product-centric SaaS business.
Datavant Chief Product Officer, Sam Diederich, says:
“Product is at the heart of how technology organisations build, scale and innovate. Product Strategy, Product Management, and its partnership with technology play a central role in the work we do at Datavant. This is exactly what we want to spotlight as part of our Unplugged series – we’ll explore how product management drives innovation and unpack the skills that make product leaders successful, as well as how we see these principles reflected in our team today. We’ll also discuss the experiences and capabilities that translate into effective product roles, recognising that product is not typically a formal academic discipline.”
Unplugged – Product Development within a Tech-Forward Organisation will be held on Wednesday, March 4 at JEKYLL at the Hyde Hotel in Galway. Doors will open at 6 pm with the talk beginning at 6.30 pm. The event will end at 9 pm. There will be networking opportunities before and after the interactive speaking session. Attendance is free, but spaces are limited. Those interested can register on Eventbrite here.
