Acryl, a total AI transformation solution company, signed a strategic memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Kangwon National University Hospital to "enhance cooperation in artificial intelligence (AI)-based healthcare services."
Through this agreement, Acryl and Kangwon National University Hospital plan to ▲establish a medical specialized foundation model and commercialize it as a service ▲advance AI healthcare research and development (R&D) ▲establish a data center based on healthcare big data integration and standardization ▲jointly promote a global public healthcare ODA package model ▲create an AI regional innovation ecosystem in the Gangwon region.
The core of the agreement is to develop a "future-oriented active medical AI service" that combines AI technology and medical infrastructure to respond immediately in the physical environment. Acryl has maintained a long-standing partnership with Kangwon National University Hospital to introduce AI technology into the medical field, and this physical AI implementation also builds on this partnership.
The two organizations have been carrying out various joint projects, including ▲patient-tailored AI dietary management solution ▲Doctor Answer AI severe atopic disease management ▲Karakalpakstan maternal and child health information project, and have been discovering AI healthcare models that can be applied in clinical settings.
Kangwon National University Hospital is currently developing and operating AI services in the areas of diet management, pain management, health management, and life logging as part of its AI-based cancer treatment center development project. This agreement was signed to integrate the hospital's EMR and physical AI robots.
Upon completion of this collaboration, it will be possible to build a personalized patient management platform based on physical AI that integrates data across the entire patient care process, including diagnosis, treatment, recovery, and lifestyle management, and enables direct patient care in real-world settings.
Kangwon National University Hospital Director Nam Woo-dong said, “This agreement will be the first step toward medical physical AI that combines clinical data and cutting-edge AI technology to provide real benefits to patients,” adding, “We will contribute to Gangwon-do’s leap forward as the center of digital healthcare in Korea.”
Acrylic CEO Park Oe-jin emphasized, “A robust data ecosystem is essential for AI to move beyond the laboratory and become a partner that supports patients and medical staff in the physical space of a hospital. We will create a world-class medical AI reference together with Kangwon National University Hospital.”
