We have questions about how this deal is structured in terms of consent, risks, revenue, and more - and you may too. It&#x27;s worth tens of millions of dollars to the vendor and there are lots of other ways Toronto could be doing this.We&#x27;ll be talking about: procurement process, automating care and relationships, proprietary tech, IP and the law, digital rights, payment systems, and more.
