Amplifai Health, a health technology company applying thermal imaging and artificial intelligence to chronic disease management and sports medicine, has been accepted into the World Economic Forum’s MINDS programme (Meaningful, Intelligent, Novel, Deployable Solutions). The company will join a global cohort of organizations recognized for translating AI from experimentation into real-world impact, alongside industry leaders including Siemens, Lenovo, Sanofi, and KPMG.
The MINDS programme spotlights organizations that have moved beyond pilots and proof-of-concepts to deploy AI systems delivering measurable outcomes and tangible value across sectors. Working in collaboration with the Ministry of Health of Saudi Arabia, Amplifai Health’s AI-powered thermal imaging solution for diabetic foot risk screening has delivered significant clinical and operational results. These include up to an 80% reduction in treatment costs related to diabetic foot complications, a 12-fold increase in screening capacity without a proportional rise in specialist staffing, and full clinical validation and regulatory approval, with deployment in live healthcare environments.
These results underscore how responsible AI deployment can support clinicians, expand access to care, and enhance overall health system performance.
Maria Basso, Head AI Applications and Impact, Centre for AI Excellence, World Economic Forum, said, “The World Economic Forum’s MINDS Programme spotlights AI solutions that are not only innovative, but also grounded in societal needs. Through MINDS, organizations are demonstrating how AI can deliver tangible value when designed with people at the centre. We’re proud of the work being carried out by these organizations, leading by example.”
“Acceptance into the World Economic Forum’s MINDS programme is a meaningful milestone that reflects the real-world value of AI when it is integrated thoughtfully, responsibly, and at scale,” said Dr. Meshari Alwashmi, Founder and CEO of Amplifai Health. “Our partnership with the Ministry of Health of Saudi Arabia, combined with support from national ecosystem stakeholders, shows how innovation can be aligned with public health priorities to drive measurable impact for patients and providers.”
Amplifai Health also acknowledged the continued support of the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology, the Ministry of Economy and Planning, the National Technology Development Program (NTDP), and strategic partners across the broader ecosystem.
