SARC MedIQ CEO Asaad Hakeem to Lead Forbes Business Council Healthcare Group

Silicon Valley, California — August 26, 2025. SARC MedIQ today announced that its Chief Executive Officer, Asaad Hakeem, has been selected to lead the Forbes Business Council Healthcare Group, a peer community forum hosted on Forbes Councils for senior executives and entrepreneurs. The appointment marks another milestone in Sarc MedIQ’s mission to help healthcare providers deliver faster, safer, and more cost‑effective care through AI‑powered imaging and workflow automation.

Under Asaad’s leadership, the community will convene healthcare operators, founders, clinicians, and technology leaders to exchange practical strategies and real‑world lessons from the front lines of care delivery and digital transformation. The Group’s focus aligns with the Council’s brief description:

“Discussions on the science and business of healthcare, including strategies for overcoming obstacles and insights into technologies transforming access, quality and sustainability.”

“As operators, we’re obsessed with what actually works in busy clinics and hospital networks,” said Asaad Hakeem, CEO of SARC MedIQ. “In the Healthcare Group, my goal is to elevate voices from the field—what delivers outcomes, what scales, and what measurably improves patient care while making clinicians’ lives easier, and their work faster and more accurate.”

SARC MedIQ’s platform helps small and medium‑sized practices modernize diagnostic imaging and reporting workflows using AI, while maintaining affordability and rapid time‑to‑value. By contributing operator‑level perspectives to the Council, Asaad aims to bridge the gap between innovation narratives and measurable, day‑to‑day improvements in access, quality, and sustainability.

The Healthcare Group is now live. Interested readers can follow the Group and join the conversation here:  Forbes Business Council Healthcare Group
