Topic: Transforming Healthcare with AI: From Data to Direct Care Speaker: Shih-Chung Jessy Kang.  Founder and CEO, Smart Ageing Tech Time: 2025/04/29 (Tue) 14:00-16:00 Venue: The Management Building, 11F, AI Lecture Hall Join Online: https://reurl.cc/gRZ14V or scan QR code on poster  About the Speaker:   Jessy, who grew up in a family that owns a hospital, holds a Stanford Ph.D. with expertise in robotics and AI. He conducted a decade of healthcare technology research at National Taiwan University, building a longstanding collaboration with research institutions in Finland and Japan. In 2018, he and several core research team members established a tech company, Smart Ageing Tech (as known as Jubo), dedicated to solving the issue of the aging population and societies. In late 2018, Smart Ageing Tech launched its first product: Jubo Facility Solution. The solution includes four parts: (1) IoT trolley: to reduce the efforts on the measurement of vital signs at the bedside; (2) Smart Nursing Information System: to increase the quality and accuracy of the nursing record through smart input interface; (3) Facility Management Chatbot: to facilitate real-time and effective management via integration with LINE; (4) Family Communication Chatbot: to enhance the family engagement in long-term care. As of 2024, it has been adopted by over 1,200 long-term care institutions, supporting the health data management of more than 150,000 residents. Prior to founding Jubo, Dr. Kang had an accomplished academic career in AI and robotics, receiving numerous awards and holding 23 related patents. His leadership emphasizes teamwork, innovation, and value creation. By uniting interdisciplinary talent, he has positioned Jubo as a leading provider of SaaS and AI solutions for the caregiving industry. Abstract: This talk will explore real-world applications of AI in long-term care, focusing on how smart systems can reduce caregiver workload and enhance care quality. Dr. Jessy Kang will present how Jubo uses AI to automate tasks like vital sign monitoring, wound documentation, and care handovers across over 1,200 care institutions. He will also share insights from building a health-tech startup rooted in academic research, and how Jubo delivers high-impact solutions with a Social Return on Investment (SROI) of 9.6.
