Korean startup Lunit accelerates expansion across Middle East with new supply contract

Supplying AI-powered breast screening solution to Dr. Sulaiman Al Habib Medical Group for the next three years

Lunit, a leading provider of artificial intelligence (AI)-powered solutions for cancer diagnostics and therapeutics, continues its rapid expansion across the Middle East with a new supply contract.

Following its recent collaboration with Seha Virtual Hospital earlier this month, South Korea-based startup Lunit has announced the signing of a commercial contract with Cloud Solutions, a subsidiary of Dr. Sulaiman Al Habib Medical Group (HMG), Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Under the agreement, Lunit will supply its AI solution for mammography analysis, Lunit INSIGHT MMG, to Dr. Sulaiman Al Habib Medical Group for the next three years. HMG intends to integrate Lunit INSIGHT MMG into the diagnosis systems of medical institutions across the Middle East, analyzing hundreds of thousands of mammography images annually.

In addition to the supply contract, Lunit and Cloud Solutions will collaborate to enhance Lunit's AI-powered solutions based on Cloud Solution's cutting-edge cloud AI platform. This collaboration aims to further optimise Lunit's offerings and provide an even more advanced and seamless experience for the Kingdom.

The agreement between Lunit and Cloud Solutions is set to deliver high-quality medical services to patients across the Kingdom, addressing pressing challenges such as doctor shortages or medically underserved populations. Furthermore, this partnership will contribute to the Kingdom's national cancer screening programme, building on the success and impact of Lunit's collaboration with Seha Virtual Hospital.

To further innovate breast screening for patients in Saudi Arabia, Lunit also plans to introduce Lunit INSIGHT DBT, an AI-powered 3D Breast Tomosynthesis analysis solution, to HMG later this year.
