SK Biopharmaceuticals and Eurofarma Form Joint Venture for AI Epilepsy Platform
SK Biopharmaceuticals and Eurofarma have established a joint venture named Mentis Care to develop an AI-based platform for epilepsy management, announced in a press release. The venture aims to commercialize an integrated digital ecosystem that combines real-time seizure detection, prediction algorithms, and clinical decision support tools.
Mentis Care is headquartered in the MaRS Discovery District in Toronto, one of North America's major innovation hubs. It will focus on advancing AI-driven electroencephalography and wearable technologies developed by SK Biopharmaceuticals since 2018. The company plans to expand its team, pursue clinical validation of its algorithms, and strengthen collaborations with academic and industry partners.
Eurofarma will lead business strategy and AI data learning efforts for the joint venture, building on its existing partnership with SK Biopharmaceuticals, which began in 2022 for the Latin American commercialization of the anti-seizure medication cenobamate. Hassan Kotob, former CEO of Brain Scientific, has been appointed as CEO of Mentis Care to oversee the platform’s development and operations.
