OMRON Healthcare Co., Ltd. has announced a second round of investment in Tricog Health India Pvt. Ltd., a Bengaluru-based AI medtech startup, reinforcing its long-term commitment to advancing cardiovascular care in India. This follows OMRON’s initial investment in March 2023 and aims to accelerate the joint development of innovative solutions that combine artificial intelligence with connected medical technologies.
India continues to face a growing cardiovascular health crisis, with cardio- and cerebrovascular diseases ranking as the top causes of death, according to WHO data. The burden is compounded by a shortage of trained cardiologists and limited access to advanced diagnostic tools like ECG equipment, particularly in non-urban and resource-limited areas.
Tricog Health addresses these gaps by integrating AI-powered ECG analysis—developed from over a decade of patient data—with the clinical expertise of more than 100 in-house specialists. This fusion of technology and medical insight supports early diagnosis and timely intervention, enabling healthcare providers to deliver preventive cardiac care even in underserved regions.
Since 2023, OMRON and Tricog have collaborated on KeeboHealth, a remote monitoring platform for heart-failure management. The service connects OMRON’s smart ECG and blood pressure devices with Tricog’s AI analytics, allowing real-time data sharing with physicians. This enhances diagnostic accuracy, supports post-treatment monitoring, and helps reduce recurrence rates in cardiac patients.
The latest investment deepens the strategic alliance between the two companies, focused on developing locally relevant, scalable cardiovascular solutions for India’s healthcare system. It also aligns with OMRON Healthcare’s global vision, “Going for ZERO,” which aims to eliminate adverse cerebrovascular and cardiovascular events through early detection, continuous monitoring, and data-driven care innovations.
