A visionary business leader comments:
“An estimated 129 million Americans are entering 2026 battling at least one chronic disease. That’s nearly 40% of the U.S. population. It’s a reality that continues despite the record $4.9 trillion Americans spent on health care in the most recently reported year.
While no single solution exists to overcome America’s health woes, the next wave of breakthroughs could emerge at the intersection of farms, feed lots, food and pharmaceuticals.
It’s a concept known as One Health, a globally recognized discipline designed to advance health innovation and improve lives by recognizing and optimizing the interdependencies between people, plants, animals and the planet.
The opportunity has captured the attention of global leaders, and Indiana is among the few economies in the world with the scale and momentum to become its epicenter. …”
“… One Health holds the promise to improve the lives of millions, and Indiana has the assets to lead. The moment demands action to build on momentum, convert assets into impact and usher in a new era of One Health innovation. America and the rest of the world are counting on it.•
