2024 has been a year of successful growth and innovation for Newry. We worked with many new client organizations and launched several exciting strategy offerings, including those targeted toward PE firms as well as companies exploring M&A. Our project work investigated emerging technology areas and developing trends like pyrolysis recycling, battery materials, water filtration, data centers, solar energy, quantum computing, augmented reality devices, and generative AI.

Here’s a round-up of our top thought leadership from 2024:

Cleveland Clinic and IBM’s New Quantum Computer for Healthcare – Biomedical innovation is sure to get a boost with Cleveland Clinic and IBM’s announcement of the world’s first quantum computer dedicated to healthcare research.

However, there are still a few challenges corporations are facing as they make the shift.
