Samsung Redefines Everyday Wellness With Connected Care Solutions at VivaTech 2026

Samsung Electronics is presenting its connected care vision for healthcare and advancing a shift toward proactive health management at VivaTech 2026, Europe’s largest startup and tech conference, running 17 – 20 June at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles in Paris.

Held under the theme “Open Invitation to a Healthier Tomorrow,” Samsung’s exhibition demonstrates how connecting devices, services and partnerships can support proactive health management inside and outside the home. Samsung’s connected care vision is realised through Samsung Health[1], the company’s integrated health platform, which delivers personalised wellness experiences across five key health areas: sleep, activity, nutrition, mental health and vital signs.

“Samsung delivers unique connected care solutions that encompass the Samsung ecosystem of smartphones, wearables, home appliances and TVs, as well as our open partnerships,” said Stephanie Choi, Executive Vice President and Head of Global Brand Center at Samsung Electronics. “We continue to work to provide various wellness solutions through open partnerships to firmly establish ourselves as a reliable AI-powered everyday health companion.”

The exhibition booth is organised into three zones:

• Media Façade: A video interpretation of the exhibition theme “Open Invitation to a Healthier Tomorrow,” beautifully integrated with Samsung Health’s five core wellness areas.
• Samsung’s Connected Care Ecosystem: A comprehensive look at the connected care solutions and core services.
• Open Care Lab: A space highlighting partner collaboration and startup incubation that also includes an interactive zone.

Samsung’s Connected Care Ecosystem Zone serves as the main area of the exhibition and demonstrates how Galaxy smartphones, Galaxy Watches and the Samsung Health app seamlessly connect to enable proactive wellness management. The zone also offers a glimpse into the future of daily health management, powered by Samsung Health’s latest features — including tracking via Heart Health Score[2] and Vitals[3], alongside enhanced workout metrics such as Daily Cardio Load[4], introduced in the new 7.0 update.[5]

In this zone, Samsung is presenting its future digital healthcare vision, which aims to bridge wellness and clinical care by integrating Samsung’s technology with Xealth[6], the U.S. digital health platform the company acquired last year.

Xealth⁶ provides a platform that enables medical professionals to assess patient conditions, prescribe and recommend digital solutions and monitor health in real time. By connecting Galaxy smartphones and wearables with the Xealth platform, Samsung plans to develop a solution that empowers both clinical teams and patients to actively manage health together, even outside of a hospital setting.

The company is also showcasing its Bespoke AI Refrigerator Family Hub, which enables smart diet management. AI Food Manager[7] tracks expiration dates and sends timely alerts before ingredients reach the use-by date set by the user. Additionally, the FoodNote[8] widget analyses ingredient data stored and used over the past week, providing personalised insights into the user’s most frequently consumed food items.

Samsung is also introducing a pet care solution that helps users monitor potential health issues at home. Through a collaboration with the pet health management solution Lifet[9], users can take a photo with their mobile device, which AI then analyses for signs associated with issues such as certain dental problems, patellar luxation and cataracts.[10]

Seamlessly connected through Samsung’s smart home platform, SmartThings[11], the solutions presented in the Connected Care Ecosystem Zone help safeguard personal data with Knox, Samsung’s proprietary security solution.

The booth’s Open Care Lab features a range of partner solutions, including the AI Beauty Screen developed in collaboration with Amorepacific, a leading Korea-based beauty company; Visual Meditation, a service exclusive to Samsung TVs developed in collaboration with CUZ; and an AI-based skin and scalp analysis solution by Becon, which was founded through Samsung’s in-house venture project, C-Lab.

Visitors can book an appointment for a personalised K-beauty experience using the AI Beauty Screen[12] to assess their skin condition and receive a tailored lip makeup application. Attendees can also experience the Visual Meditation service on a Samsung TV.

On June 19, a panel discussion will feature prominent speakers, including Hon Pak, Head of Mobile eXperience (MX) Digital Health Team at Samsung Electronics; David Lee, Head of Samsung Next; Mike McSherry, CEO of Xealth; Alina Su, Co-founder and CEO of Generation Lab; and Michael Dubrovsky, Co-founder and CEO of SiPhox Health.

Speaking to a global audience, the panel will discuss how Samsung’s open innovation approach and collaborative partner ecosystem can help bring its connected care vision to life.
