Talking point: BlackBerry has been trying to diversify its business model under new CEO John Giamatteo as it prepares to potentially spin off parts of the company. It has been especially interested in the medical market and autonomous mobile robots, which can be used in settings like warehouses and farms. In an earnings call last week, Giametteo said a major medical equipment manufacturer chose BlackBerry’s QNX software platform for a new imaging machine that assesses blood and heart health. He also said QNX was selected for use in a surgical robot.
