Simplex Quantum’s selection for the MedTech Innovator Asia Pacific 2025 Accelerator marks a significant milestone for the Tokyo-based startup and its pioneering work in cardiovascular health. The company’s core innovation, the NIHA-HF (Neural Intelligent Heart Analyzer – Heart Failure), uses advanced AI algorithms to analyze a simple 30-second, single-lead ECG and detect signs of heart failure. Unlike traditional methods that depend on imaging or invasive diagnostics, this technology offers a fast, cost-effective, and scalable alternative that can be integrated into both clinical and consumer health platforms.

The importance of Simplex Quantum’s work lies in its potential to dramatically improve early detection and management of heart failure, a condition affecting millions worldwide. By leveraging AI to interpret data typically overlooked in standard ECGs, NIHA-HF could enable earlier intervention and better patient outcomes. The technology’s versatility — compatible with hospital-grade ECG systems and wearable devices — means it could reach underserved populations and extend cardiac monitoring beyond hospital walls. Its current patent protection across Japan, the U.S., and India also positions the company well for international deployment.

As part of the MedTech Innovator Asia Pacific 2025 Accelerator, Simplex Quantum will gain access to industry leaders, investors, and potential partners across the region, accelerating the path to regulatory approval and commercialization. This opportunity not only validates the company's innovative approach to heart failure detection but also reinforces its mission to transform how cardiac conditions are diagnosed and managed globally. With heart disease remaining the leading cause of death worldwide, Simplex Quantum’s technology has the potential to become a game-changer in preventive cardiac care.
