Diabetes Tech Hype vs. Reality: A Candid Talk with David Kliff

from Diabetes Connections | Type 1 Diabetes · host Stacey Simms with David Kliff

When we hear about exciting diabetes tech and groundbreaking advances, it's easy to get caught up in the hype. But what's really coming, and what's just wishful thinking? This week, we're talking to David Kliff, publisher of Diabetic Investor and host of The Wacky World of Diabetes podcast. Diagnosed with type 1 diabetes as an adult in 1996, David has spent decades analyzing the business of diabetes, consulting with top industry players, and contributing to outlets like Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, and CNBC. Known for his sharp analysis—and sometimes brutal honesty—David shares his insights on what's truly game-changing in diabetes care, what's just marketing, and how patients can keep their expectations in check. I jokingly call him the dream killer, but he's not entirely cynical! Tune in for a lively and eye-opening conversation about the future of diabetes technology.
