**ABOUT LUCID GROUP**

**_
Transformation starts here._**

In healthcare, innovation doesn’t only change lives—it saves them. We don’t take that lightly. That’s

why we approach each challenge with curiosity—asking the right questions, gaining understanding,

then bringing together the right team of diverse minds across capabilities to deliver transformative

solutions that break through and help realise change for those who need it most.

Today’s healthcare landscape is more complex and challenging than ever—the “standard” playbook

no longer guarantees success. Lucid is purpose-built to help you make the most of unexpected

opportunities, challenging conventional thinking, and bringing a fresh perspective.
