It might help to convince governments that CGM coverage is a necessity. Without rigorous scientific evidence, they can be very reluctant to cover CGMs.
There are more challenges this consortium will address:

It sounds cool but I don’t really understand what they’ll be doing. Like I can see some ideas coming out of it (CGM lowers hypos).

Or is it just going to be blood sugar data?
