He also plans to focus on building an AI-native organizational structure to expand AI-based healthcare services.
CSO Jiwoong Kim stated, "Carelabs has ample potential to grow into a healthcare company that connects the entire health journey throughout life. We will strengthen the competitiveness of our existing businesses while identifying new business areas and expanding strategic opportunities to build a foundation for sustainable growth."
CTO Wonhee Lee commented, "We will enhance our technical leadership by building a stable service operation system and a highly scalable technology environment, while also transforming into an AI-native organization to deliver hyper-personalized medical experiences optimized for each individual user."
