[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heeyoon] Kyowon Group announced on the 26th that it has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with GC Green Cross Healthcare for a ‘customized digital healthcare business collaboration.’

The signing ceremony took place on the 23rd at the Kyowon Naewoe Building. Attending from Kyowon Group were Jang Dongha, Head of Planning and Coordination Office, and Shin Donghoon, Head of Wells Business Division; from GC Green Cross Healthcare were CEO Ahn Hyojo and Sung Yoonju, Head of Healthcare Business Division.

Through this agreement, the two companies will join forces for data, network, and artificial intelligence (AI)-based digital healthcare services. The main points include building a data-sharing platform for digital healthcare services, providing customized customer health management services based on collected data, and conducting joint marketing to promote digital healthcare.

In particular, Wells, the health appliance brand operated by Kyowon Group, plans to launch a digital healthcare solution linked with GC Green Cross Healthcare technology in home appliances in the second half of this year through this agreement. Life data collected via Wells appliances will be delivered to GC Green Cross Healthcare to provide personalized health analysis and one-on-one customized consultation services.

A Kyowon Group official said, “In the second half of this year, we plan to consecutively introduce ‘Sleep Solution’ for improving sleep disorders, as well as ‘Health Solutions’ for managing diet, blood sugar, and blood pressure,” adding, “We will expand to various digital healthcare solutions linked not only with Wells but also with other businesses within Kyowon Group.”
