In 2015, he served as Chief Curator at Klick Ideas Exchange (a precursor to the BIO International Convention) (the first BIO International Convention was held in 1993 thus the Klick Ideas Exchange as not a precursor to the convention), bringing together the top biopharma CEOs with some of the world's leading innovators, including President Bill Clinton, Drs. Eric Topol, Ezekiel Emanuel , and Daniel Kraft, biotech luminaries Martine Rothblatt and RJ Kirk, and business management gurus Tom Peters and Gary Hamel.[1] Earlier in that year, he was named the 2015 Leadership Award honoree by the Kingsbrook Jewish Medical Center.[2][3][4]
He has been a keynote speaker at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity,[5].

Klick Ideas Exchange[edit]
On June 15, 2015, Klick Health produced, hosted, and curated the inaugural Klick Ideas Exchange. The event brought together visionary leaders with the nation’s top biopharma CEOs to explore how emerging technologies and data can radically change the way healthcare is delivered and how healthcare companies work. The event was highlighted by a keynote by President Bill Clinton and followed by a conversation between President Clinton and Dr. Ron Cohen, event co-chair, incoming Biotechnology Industry Organization (BIO) Chairman, and CEO of Acorda Therapeutics Inc. The by-invitation-only event was held in Philadelphia as a precursor to the BIO International Convention with an all-encompassing lineup of presenters and panelists that also included Drs. Eric Topol, Ezekiel Emanuel, and Daniel Kraft, biotech luminaries Martine Rothblatt, Craig Venter, and RJ Kirk, and business management gurus Tom Peters and Gary Hamel.[1]
The Decoded Company[edit]
On February 20, 2014, Segal published The Decoded Company: Know Your People Better Than You Know Your Customers,[8] a Penguin Portfolio book, along with co-authors Aaron Goldstein (Klick's Co-Founder), Jay Goldman (Klick Managing Director), and Rahaf Harfoush (Technology Strategist). It was named a New York Times Best Seller in March 2014.[9]
In an exclusive interview, Fast Company also said Segal "takes the meaning of a 'young entrepreneur' to a new level" calling his analytical, culture-centric business practices "crazy enough to work."[10] Segal also appeared on Bloomberg Radio [11] and was interviewed at The CORE Club in New York City by Bloomberg host Carol Massar.[12] As part of the book launch, he also spoke at Rotman Business School at University of Toronto,[13] Harvard University, Wharton, Hebrew University, Tel Aviv University, and Twitter's World Headquarters in San Francisco,[14] Later in the year, he delivered high-profile keynotes related to the book, including one at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity in June [15] and another at TED University at TEDGlobal in Rio de Janeiro in October.[16]
