Medical artificial intelligence market is growing rapidly, the scale is expected to reach 20 billion yuan this year

"Medical artificial intelligence is developing at an alarming rate, both at home and internationallyRecently, Caixin Health Point and Philips jointly released the "China Medical Artificial Intelligence Industry Report" (hereinafter referred to as the "Report") pointed out that in recent years, China's medical market has emerged a large number of medical artificial intelligence startups, at the same time, a number of traditional medical-related enterprises and Internet platforms are also introducing artificial intelligence talent and technology, related layoutAt the same time as information technology is developing rapidly, artificial intelligence is also driving the transformation of the medical and health industry. "Report" in the current medical artificial intelligence industry, while investigating dozens of domestic medical artificial intelligence enterprises, on the one hand, the typical enterprises for in-depth analysis, on the other hand through comprehensive research to predict the latest development trends of the industryCaixin Health Point Operations Director Zhao Guocheng believes that medical artificial intelligence in China has an innate advantage: on the one hand, the number of Chinese mouths, there is sufficient medical data, for the development of medical artificial intelligence provides the cornerstone, on the other hand, China's large enough medical market also provides a driving force for artificial intelligence companies. According to the Strategic Planning Analysis Report on Chinese Industry Market Prospects and Investment series 2018-2023 released by the Institute of Forward Industry Research, the market size of China's medical artificial intelligence has reached 9.661 billion yuan in 2016 and is expected to reach 20 billion yuan in 2018. According to statistics, from 2013 to 2017, China's medical artificial intelligence industry received a total of 241 financingAmong them, in 2017, the domestic medical artificial intelligence industry announced nearly 30 financing incidents, the total financing of more than 1.8 billion yuanBy 2018, capital's enthusiasm for the medical artificial intelligence market will continue unabated, with 18 companies investing in the first half of the year alone, with a total value of more than 3.1 billion yuanMoreover, the Internet giants have already re-capitalised the layout of medical artificial intelligence, large-scale expansion of the industrial chain upstream and downstream business. The report analyzes the business model of medical artificial intelligence, which believes that medical artificial intelligence has ushered in a critical period of commercialization after a fiery developmentAt present, although the vast majority of medical artificial intelligence enterprises have not yet achieved profitability, and most of the products are still in the experimental stage, but through different business models can already achieve a certain amount of paid revenue. According to the report, China's companies engaged in medical artificial intelligence-related business are broadly divided into three categories: start-ups, Internet platforms and traditional medical-related enterprisesBusiness models are not the same because of the differences in strengths and weaknessesStart-ups are working with insurance and medical institutions to sell services, and Internet giants are accelerating their presence in the field of medical artificial intelligence, but international giants such as Facebook, Apple and Amazon are paying less attention to projects that are being used across the border in the healthcare industry, while domestic BAT, Science and Technology and other companies are paying more attention to the market. However, with the development of medical artificial intelligence industry, its problems are increasingly prominentThe first is the lack of standards, and the second is the lack of artificial intelligence talentIn our country, there is a shortage of complex and strategic talents who understand both medical care and technology.
