Kanamic Network’s New Venture in Singapore: Health Information System

Kanamic Network, headquartered in Shibuya, Tokyo, has recently received approval from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications in Japan for a significant project aimed at developing a medical and healthcare information sharing system in Singapore. This initiative is particularly crucial given Singapore's rapidly aging population.

The project comes with a contract value of approximately 113 million yen (around $1 million), which encompasses various activities including local investigations, research, and the implementation of a cloud system specifically designed for the Singaporean environment.

Addressing Singapore's Aging Population

As of July 2023, Singapore has initiated the Healthier SG program, targeting citizens aged 60 and above with preventive healthcare initiatives. Kanamic Network aims to validate the effectiveness of Japan's health and care information sharing systems within Singapore, thereby enhancing their international competitive edge.

The project will leverage Kanamic Network's extensive experience and specialization in fostering collaboration across multiple professions through the Kanamic Cloud Service, which is currently in use at over 50,000 institutions across 1,300 regions in Japan.

Building Local Relations

Kanamic Network’s robust relationship with local stakeholders is further bolstered by its subsidiary, The World Management Pte. Ltd. This Singapore-based IT consulting firm, founded in 1980, has developed a deep understanding of local market conditions and holds a strong customer base that spans hospitals, clinics, and care facilities. With Takuma Yamamoto, the president of Kanamic Network, also heading TWM, the company is poised for efficient and effective collaborations in the region.

Trusted Technology and Compliance

Kanamic Network prides itself on its high standards of information security and compliance as a publicly listed company on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. It has established rigorous internal control frameworks, including the SOC1® Type 2 report, and obtained various safety and reliability certifications in the healthcare software sector. Additionally, the company has an impressive track record in government projects across multiple ministries.

Contributions to ASEAN

Through this project, Kanamic Network aims to validate the applicability and usefulness of Japan's advanced medical, caregiving, and health sectors' digital transformation (DX) models in Singapore. The long-term goal is to expand activities across the ASEAN region, addressing critical issues such as workforce shortages in caregiving and rising healthcare costs that many member countries face.

By doing so, Kanamic Network seeks to balance social contributions with economic profitability while enhancing the international competitiveness of Japan's medical and caregiving industries.

Future Outlook

The official signing of the contract for this Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications project is expected to commence in the 2023 fiscal year. However, the financial impacts of this endeavor are anticipated to materialize in the following fiscal year.

The Kanamic Cloud Service

The Kanamic Cloud Service is a regional collaboration cloud service designed to support the establishment of a community-based care system. It serves local governments, medical associations, and caregiving businesses to promote inter-professional collaboration through effective information-sharing systems and operational systems tailored for caregiving providers.
