AIIMS and Wipro to establish AI Health Innovation Hub

The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) on Saturday (December 14, 2024) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Wipro GE Healthcare Pvt. Ltd., to establish an AI Health Innovations Hub at the Centre. The new hub will focus on the development of products and solutions that enhance healthcare delivery and outcomes through more precise diagnosis, innovative treatment protocols, and real-time patient data tracking.

As the technology partner, Wipro GE Healthcare will invest around $1 million over the next five years to co-develop, test, and deploy intelligent systems and workflow solutions in cardiology, oncology, and neurology. As clinical partner for the hub, AIIMS will provide multi-modal clinical inputs, and function as a real-world clinical environment for evaluation, feedback, and deployment of GE HealthCare’s AI-enabled solutions. A joint working committee from both organisations will oversee the collaboration, which will include clinical research and academic engagement.

M. Srinivas, director, AIIMS, said that the partnership with Wipro GE Healthcare holds strategic value and is aligned with the national vision of Viksit Bharat through advanced healthcare. We are optimistic that with this collaboration we will be able to accelerate the development and validation of advance MedTech and offer more effective care for patients.
