Summary: Recorded live from the floor of HIMSS 2026 in Las Vegas, this Brand Spotlight conversation with Chris Sullivan, Global Healthcare Practice Lead at Zebra Technologies, explores how technology — from RFID drug tracking to AI-powered frontline devices — is reshaping the way hospitals deliver care, reduce waste, and protect patients. From a groundbreaking pharmacy innovation at Texas Children's Hospital to Zebra's vision for ambient intelligence at the point of care, this is a candid look at what it means to build technology for the people who actually do the work. At HIMSS 2026 in Las Vegas, the conversation keeps circling back to the same question: how can technology help healthcare workers spend more time with patients and less time chasing information? For Chris Sullivan, Global Healthcare Practice Lead at Zebra Technologies, that question is not hypothetical — it's the work. In this Brand Spotlight, Marco Ciappelli connects with Chris from the conference floor to talk about what's actually happening in healthcare technology right now. Zebra Technologies, a 55-year-old company with over 10,000 employees and more than 300 healthcare-specific products, has built its reputation by designing tools not for the corner office, but for the frontline worker — the nurse, the pharmacist, the care team member who needs the right information at exactly the right moment. One of the most compelling stories Chris shares is Zebra's partnership with Texas Children's Hospital, a world leader in pediatric oncology. The challenge: high-cost cancer medications — some exceeding a million dollars per treatment — were being lost, duplicated, or expiring before reaching patients. The solution was an RFID-based drug management system, built in partnership with a Texas software company, that now tracks medications throughout the pharmacy supply chain. The result? Millions of dollars in annual inventory savings, improved patient safety, and a model that Texas Children's is now actively sharing with hospitals in Amsterdam and beyond. But the RFID story is just one piece of a larger picture. What Zebra calls healthcare workflow orchestration — the coordination of people, assets, and information across a complex hospital environment — is the bigger ambition. Chris describes a three-part framework: asset visibility (digitizing wheelchairs, pumps, medications, and supplies), real-time information for caregivers (through mobile computers and hands-free wearables), and operational automation (like the pharmacy RFID system). Together, these elements are designed to remove friction from the care delivery process and give clinicians back the one thing they most want: presence with their patients. And then there's AI. Zebra has been building sensor-rich devices for years, and now those sensors — over 15 per device, capturing voice, video, and environmental data — are becoming the foundation for an AI platform built specifically for frontline workers. Chris draws a sharp distinction between AI for knowledge workers and AI for frontline workers, arguing that the needs, rules, and structures are fundamentally different. Zebra's approach is to pre-extract sensor intelligence into an open SDK with over 21 AI enablers, then package those into industry-specific blueprints that can be deployed in months rather than years. The conversation ends where it began: with people. Chris is both a technology provider and a healthcare board member, which gives him a perspective that's rare in this industry. He understands what it means when a caregiver is interrupted. He knows that a nurse who has to stop and look something up is a nurse who isn't holding a patient's hand. That's the problem Zebra is trying to solve — not with a flashy pitch, but with 55 years of frontline experience and a clear-eyed view of what the work actually looks like.
