VANCOUVER – USA News Group News Commentary – A recent World Economic Forum report highlights AI's potential to ease the strain on healthcare systems worldwide, noting Mayo Clinic’s early adoption as a key example of how AI can accelerate progress. Even Elon Musk has suggested that his company’s Grok AI could play a role in healthcare by analyzing medical images. At this year’s HLTH conference in Las Vegas, major players like Nvidia, Google, and Microsoft showcased their latest healthcare AI tools. Meanwhile, several up-and-coming tech companies are making strides in AI healthcare, including Avant Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: AVAI), Recursion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: RXRX), Exscientia plc (NASDAQ: EXAI), Absci Corporation (NASDAQ: ABSI), and Twist Bioscience Corporation (NASDAQ: TWST).
The article continued: The Cleveland Clinic projects that the healthcare AI industry could reach $188 billion globally by 2030, driven by advances in diagnostics, patient triage, complex data analysis, and task management. Forbes also predicts rapid advancements in areas like Predictive Healthcare, Natural Language Processing (NLP), AI-Driven Telehealth, Remote Monitoring, Robotic Surgery, Precision Medicine, Gene Editing, and Clinical Research powered by AI-driven tools.
Avant Technologies and Ainnova Tech Form Joint Venture to Advance Early Disease Detection Using Artificial Intelligence
Avant Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: AVAI), an emerging technology company developing solutions in artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure while exploring additional technologies in the biotechnology and healthcare sectors, today announced it has entered into a Joint Venture and License Agreement with Ainnova Tech Inc. (AINN), a leading healthcare technology (healthtech) company, to form a new Nevada Corporation called “Ai-nova Acquisition Corp” (AAC). The partnership was formed to advance and commercialize Ainnova’s technology portfolio, including its “VisionAI” platform and its “Versatile Retinal Cameras.”
VisionAI is a cutting-edge, AI-driven platform that can detect diabetic retinopathy and other retinal diseases, as well as diseases unrelated to the retina like cardiovascular disease and potentially even Alzheimer’s with high accuracy and speed using retinal scans. Meanwhile, Ainnova’s next-generation versatile retinal cameras are seamlessly integrated with VisionAI for precise retinal scans. Along with the VisionAI software, Ainnova’s retinal cameras, offer AAC SaaS + retinal camera commercialization opportunities with opticians and eye care centers in two extremely profitable markets, North America and Europe.
“This joint venture aligns perfectly with our long-term goals, and as we work together to push the boundaries of what’s possible in the healthtech sector, we look forward to setting new standards and bringing transformative solutions to patients around the world in an accessible way,” said Vinicio Vargas, CEO of Ainnova.
Ainnova will contribute to AAC its proprietary technology portfolio, including VisionAI and its retinal camera technology, and the licensing rights for AAC to develop, maintain, and commercialize the technology portfolio in both North America (United States and Canada) and Europe, while Avant will be responsible for the capital requirements to operate AAC.
Ainnova and Avant’s partnership seeks to make retinal scanning a new standard in primary care and basic health services by diagnosing a host of diseases early through a simple visual test that AAC can offer as a scalable and accessible solution.
With over 500 million people living with diabetes globally, VisionAI is designed to detect the early markers of diseases like diabetic retinopathy, which is the leading cause of blindness among working age adults. Over 30% of those living with diabetes will develop diabetic retinopathy, a disease that can be prevented with an accurate diagnosis.
Unfortunately, there aren’t enough ophthalmologists globally. And 95% of cases of blindness due to diabetic retinopathy can easily be prevented with an early and accurate diagnosis. Using advanced algorithms to analyze retinal images with precision, reliability, and speed, VisionAI can bridge the gap between too few ophthalmologists and tens of thousands of people who need to get tested.
According to Ainnova, the diagnostic error rate in diabetic retinopathy is about 49% and this is where VisionAI offers a positive impact for patients. VisionAI is a powerful tool to support the physician and give their patients accurate information that can improve their lives.
This partnership makes sense for Avant and its shareholders given the AI in healthcare market is projected to grow from $6.9 billion just 3 years ago to $67.4 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 46.2% during the forecast period. Ainnova currently has commercial agreements with Pharma companies, clinics, insurance companies, and medical service companies. These relationships should offer AAC guidance into the North American and European markets.
