Harnessing AI for Sustainable Innovation in Life Sciences

Artificial intelligence is transforming the life sciences industry, forging new paths toward sustainability and innovation. As healthcare faces its significant environmental impact—contributing 4.5% of global carbon emissions, with one-third from MedTech products—AI offers solutions that could reshape the entire sector.

Key Points:

• AI-driven circular economy models eliminate over 50% of emissions and waste in the MedTech industry.
• Predictive and generative AI reduce downtime by 50%, deploy sustainable materials within two years, and double the pace of design innovation.
• AI increases manufacturing output by 14%, reduces scrap rates by 18%, and saves 39 hours per week in manual data processing.
• Energy-efficient models and green computing minimize AI’s environmental impact while enhancing material discovery and remanufacturing.
