On August 16th, 2023 our Head of Business Development & Healthtech, Scott Mallonee, was a speaker at DataOps Day. This is a one-day virtual event where data and business leaders came together to discuss latest in data security, quality, and speed. It was a great event!

Watch Scott's presentation about the Islands of Data in Healthcare Organizations below:

In today’s digital age, the healthcare industry faces a significant challenge in securing and organizing the vast amount of medical data collected during patient visits. Unfortunately, many healthcare administrators struggle to implement robust security measures, leading to increased vulnerability to cyber-attacks. LEAD recognizes the importance of safeguarding patient and employee data which is why we’ll be taking part in DataOps Day on August 16th, 2023. DataOps Day is a one-day virtual event where data and business leaders will discuss the latest in data security, quality, and speed.

We've been hinting at it for a while and the rumors are true: LEADTOOLS Version 18 (A.K.A LEADTOOLS Anywhere) will be released in January of 2013! I'd like to spend the next couple of weeks talking about what you'll see on the shelves come January.

This week I'm starting simple, and highlighting the changes to the product line. Overall, Version 18 is a slimmer offering in terms of actual products, but there are more features and development interfaces than ever before (which I'll cover next week)!

We were recently put in contact with an experienced technical blogger and web developer, Dick Strauss, about exploring the possibility of conducting a product review. He found our product line interesting and something his readers might benefit from. We were happy to partner up with him and gave him a development license for one of our most popular products, LEADTOOLS Recognition.

Not only did he navigate our documentation and rapidly implement both full-page and zonal OCR with little effort, but he found that LEADTOOLS was, in his opinion, a "stunning product" rather than just a "good functional product." He experienced the entire process of using LEADTOOLS, including unlocking support with his development license, starting a project from scratch, and firing off some questions to our outstanding support department.

As a sponsor of .NET Conf 2020 our developer support manager, Hadi, had a chance to virtually sit down with Microsoft and Live Coder legend Jeff Fritz last night to discuss the announcement of .NET5 and what’s new with LEADTOOLS V21!
