Evan Gappelberg, CEO of Nextech commented, “2022 was a great year and has built a solid foundation of ever expanding 3D model customers in the ecommerce space for Nextech. As we enter 2023 we are leveraging the game-changing power of generative AI which we believe gives us a major competitive advantage in the 3D model market. With generative AI we are creating an increasingly wider exponentially growing moat: the more models we make, the larger that part library gets, and the easier it gets to make new 3D models. I believe that we are at the point where our business  creates a virtuous cycle of growth and value.” He continued, “2023 is going to be the year of AI and a breakout year for growth in our 3D modeling business as we have already announced multi-million dollar enterprise contacts with even more  expected to land in Q1 2023.”

2022 Annual and Q4: 3D Model and Technology Services Financial Highlights (unaudited)

  • Preliminary total revenue for fiscal 2022 was $10.3 million
  • Technology services generating $3.1 million
  • Legacy ecommerce business generating $7.2 million
  • 3D modeling revenue increased +266% compared to 2021 contributing $1.5 million 2022
  • 2022 technology services gross profit margin expands by 53%  jumping up to 43% in 2022 compared to 28% in 2021 on $3.1 million total revenue

2023 Q1 Outlook

  • Several quotes have been issued for large 3D model RFPs, which could close in Q1, 2023
  • The Company plans more updates for its second spin-out, of 3D Design Studio “Toggle3D” after the successful spin-out debut of ARway
  • ARway is rapidly moving multiple pilot projects forward which are expected to be announced shortly
  • Nextech Event Solutions is becoming the go-to Tech Event platform for the $50billion Events industry combining: MapD, HoloX, ARitize3D and ARway into one event platform.

GENERATIVE AI

Earlier this week, the Company reported that this proprietary AI-based technology for 3D model creation using through composition of deformable parts is now covered under: US patent application # 17/874,992.

ARitize 3D has built a substantial library of 3D models to date, and most of the 3D models created are composed of several individual parts. For example, a chair is composed of legs, a seat back and cushions. Every time a new 3D model is created, the parts are harvested into Nextech’s AI powered 3D part-library. Nextech is in the process of significantly expanding this large library and its utility,  which is expected to eventually hold upwards of 1,000,000 individual, unique parts. This massive parts library enables Nextech to create new 3D models by searching, assembling using this part library, allowing for a significantly increased speed of 3D model creation. Instead of starting from scratch, these parts are retrieved and assembled first, reducing 3D model creation time. The more models the Company makes, the larger that part library gets, and the easier it gets to make new 3D models and the more revenue the Company can generate.

Published

transforming-healthcare-with-ai:-yidu-tech’s-gong-rujing-at-summer-davos

DALIAN, China, July 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — “AI in healthcare is extremely challenging. For companies, it requires not only solving scientific problems but also understanding AI technology and respecting the complexity of the healthcare industry.” At the 15th Annual Meeting of the New Champions, also known as Summer Davos, Ms. Gong Rujing (Yingying), Chairwoman and Founder of Yidu Tech, was invited as a distinguished representative of the healthcare technology sector. She shared her unique insights into the future of AI in healthcare during the thematic dialogue on “Healthcare Analytics, Not Moving Fast Enough.”

This year marks the 10th anniversary of Yidu Tech and Ms. Gong Rujing’s decade-long dedication to the healthcare industry. From the inception of her entrepreneurial journey 10 years ago, she has been driven by the mission to leverage the power of technology to deliver precise healthcare to every individual.
Ms. Gong described the past decade as a journey filled with miracles and achievements. During this period, Yidu Tech has progressively established close collaborations with key stakeholders in the healthcare industry, including government agencies, hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, insurance firms, experts, and clinicians. As of March 31, 2024, Yidu Tech’s “AI Medical Brain” YiduCore has been authorized to process and analyze over 5 billion medical records, covering more than 2,500 hospitals.
In AI-powered clinical research, Yidu Tech has supported researchers and clinicians in producing over 240 high-level papers, accelerating the application of research outcomes. Additionally, Yidu Tech provides clinical trial services to globally renowned pharmaceutical companies, helping them optimize trial processes, reduce costs, and bring new drugs to market more swiftly, ultimately benefiting patients. In healthcare management, Yidu Tech’s AI technology plays a crucial role by analyzing vast amounts of medical data to provide comprehensive decision support to healthcare administrators, helping them optimize resource allocation and improve service efficiency.
“We are now entering a new era of AI technology.” The development of large language model technologies has opened up new possibilities across various industries. Yidu Tech has independently developed a large language model specific to the medical field and is advancing its application across the entire healthcare industry chain. The goal is to promote further progress and innovation through new AI technologies. However, Ms. Gong also emphasized that the healthcare industry is professional, complex, and sensitive, and the application of new technologies must address challenges such as data security, privacy protection, and ethics.
“Data security and privacy protection are fundamental to the development of AI technology and medical big data technology. We must ensure that all stakeholders are satisfied with compliance, security, accessibility, and privacy protection.”
“AI technology still has a long way to go.” She called on policymakers, healthcare institutions, and technology companies to work together to realize the immense potential of healthcare data. Ms. Gong highlighted that building trust is key, and enhancing data operability is essential to fully unleash the power of data. “It’s not just about better data quality; it’s about a better future for health.”

(the ”Company” or ”Yidu Tech”) (2158.HK), a leader in China’s AI medical industry, announced its results for the 2024 fiscal year. During the reporting period, the Company recorded revenue of RMB 807.1 million.
