Mobile Leader Profile:
Sandeep Shah, CEO, Skyscape

In 1993, Sandeep foresaw how handheld devices could revolutionize healthcare.

Sandeep Shah is a pioneer in the use of handheld devices in healthcare and inspires with a rare combination of strategic vision, market savvy and technical know-how.

Back in 1993, Sandeep developed a vision for how handheld devices could revolutionize healthcare by watching his wife, a cardiologist, tote around heavy piles of medical texts. He realized that mobile technology could bring all of the content in his wife's books right to the point of care in a much easier and more useful package.

Today, Sandeep's company Skyscape brings a full universe of medical information to the mobile devices of over 800,000 healthcare professionals. Overall Skyscape offers over 500 trusted resources spanning 35 medical specialties, the largest portfolio of mobile medical resources in the world. From drug information and clinical texts to journal articles, alerts and CME, Sandeep has realized his vision of taking most everything you would find on a clinician's bookshelves and delivering it into the hand of the practitioner at the moment it matters most: at the point of care.

Consistent with Sandeep's vision of anytime, anywhere and any device availability, Skyscape today supports all major mobile platforms including Palm, Windows Mobile, BlackBerry, Symbian, and iPhone.

Every day, the solutions that Sandeep conceived of help healthcare providers improve the quality of care, increase efficiencies and reduce errors. By making software work the way physicians work, he has helped make the presence of mobile devices in healthcare as ubiquitous as that of the stethoscope.
