<p>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 June 17-20 at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles in Paris.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img width="1000" height="667" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/17085311/Samsung-Corporate-Everyday-Wellness-Connected-Care-Solutions-VivaTech-2026_Main1.jpg" alt="An image of Samsung’s exhibition" class="wp-image-174951" /></figure>



<p>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 realized through Samsung Health, the company’s integrated health platform, which delivers personalized wellness experiences across five key health areas: sleep, activity, nutrition, mental health and vital signs.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img width="1000" height="667" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/17085522/Samsung-Corporate-Everyday-Wellness-Connected-Care-Solutions-VivaTech-2026_Main2.jpg" alt="An image of Samsung’s exhibition demonstrating five key health areas: sleep, activity, nutrition, mental health and vital signs." class="wp-image-174952" /></figure>



<p>“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 health solutions through open partnerships to firmly establish ourselves as a reliable AI-powered everyday health companion.”</p>



<p>The exhibition booth is organized into three zones:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Media Façade:</strong> A video interpretation of the exhibition theme “Open Invitation to a Healthier Tomorrow,” beautifully integrated with Samsung Health’s five core wellness areas.</li>



<li><strong>Samsung’s Connected Care Ecosystem:</strong> A comprehensive look at the connected care solutions and core services.</li>



<li><strong>Open Care Lab:</strong> A space highlighting partner collaboration and startup incubation that also includes an interactive zone.</li>
</ul>



<p>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 and Vitals, alongside enhanced workout metrics such as Daily Cardio Load, introduced in the new 7.0 update.<sup data-fn="f314200d-745a-40ea-835d-ad6ca9fa9d0e" class="fn"><a href="#f314200d-745a-40ea-835d-ad6ca9fa9d0e" id="f314200d-745a-40ea-835d-ad6ca9fa9d0e-link">1</a></sup></p>



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



<p>Xealth provides a platform that enables medical professionals to comprehensively assess patient conditions, prescribe and recommend digital healthcare 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.</p>



<p>The company is also showcasing its Bespoke AI Refrigerator Family Hub, which enables smart diet management. AI Food Manager<sup data-fn="b6d23f19-0c56-4a18-9dad-f1ca793b44bd" class="fn"><a href="#b6d23f19-0c56-4a18-9dad-f1ca793b44bd" id="b6d23f19-0c56-4a18-9dad-f1ca793b44bd-link">2</a></sup> tracks expiration dates and sends timely alerts before ingredients reach the use-by date set by the user. Additionally, the FoodNote<sup data-fn="742545c8-1d24-4daf-8380-7321c2ed8cb3" class="fn"><a href="#742545c8-1d24-4daf-8380-7321c2ed8cb3" id="742545c8-1d24-4daf-8380-7321c2ed8cb3-link">3</a></sup> widget analyzes ingredient data stored and used over the past week, providing personalized insights into the user’s most frequently consumed food items.</p>



<p>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, users can take a photo with their mobile device, which AI then analyzes for signs associated with issues such as certain dental problems, patellar luxation and cataracts.<sup data-fn="3fbcdde0-c7af-47d8-a088-6dab01c35560" class="fn"><a href="#3fbcdde0-c7af-47d8-a088-6dab01c35560" id="3fbcdde0-c7af-47d8-a088-6dab01c35560-link">4</a></sup></p>



<p>Seamlessly connected through Samsung’s smart home platform, SmartThings, the solutions presented in the Connected Care Ecosystem Zone safeguard personal data with Knox, Samsung’s proprietary security solution.</p>



<p>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.</p>



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



<p>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.</p>



<p>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.</p>

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-163163" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Samsung-Corporate-Mobile-Acquisition-Xealth-Bridging-the-Gap-Between-Wellness-and-Medical-Care_main1.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="264" /></p>
<p>Samsung Electronics today announced that it has signed an agreement to acquire Xealth, a unique healthcare integration platform that brings diverse digital health tools and care programs that benefit patients and providers. Together with Samsung’s innovative leadership in wearable technology, the acquisition will help advance Samsung’s transformation into a connected care platform that bridges wellness and medical care bringing a seamless and holistic approach to preventative care to as many people as possible.</p>
<p>This acquisition will further Samsung’s push to unify fragmented health information and to empower individuals to take control of their own health. Often, customer health data measured on wellness tools, which keep track of one’s wellness journey every day, and clinical records at hospitals are managed separately, leading to missed insights and delayed care. The synergy between Samsung’s advanced wearable technology and Xealth’s digital health platform can create a link between home health monitoring and clinical decision-making through enhancements to Xealth’s platform, with the provider-patient relationship at the center of that effort.</p>
<p>Samsung is committed to making digital health tools accessible for all through relentless innovation in technology and a boundless device ecosystem, and has been heavily investing in sensor technologies on wearables – essential tools to follow one’s wellbeing throughout both day and night. With Samsung’s diverse product portfolio especially around home, Samsung helps connect these various devices to bring better context and personalization around healthcare. The acquisition of Xealth will reinforce this commitment by becoming the cornerstone to advancing Samsung’s care at home vision of connecting and bridging wellness and medical care.</p>
<p>Xealth, spun out of Providence health system, combines multiple digital health solutions into a single user interface and platform, giving healthcare providers a more complete picture of their patients, and enabling real-time monitoring, continuous engagement and smarter decision making. Xealth acts as an orchestration layer that gives health systems control over how they manage, filter, and use data. The company currently has a network of more than 500 U.S. hospitals, including Advocate Health and Banner Health, and more than 70 digital health solution partners, which will gain access to Samsung’s platform and enhance the connected care platform.</p>
<p><span>“Samsung aims to improve the health of everyone through our extensive platform combining Samsung’s innovative technologies and open collaboration with industry leaders,” said </span>TM Roh, President and Acting Head of the Device eXperience (DX) Division at Samsung Electronics<span>. “We believe the acquisition of Xealth, with its accumulated expertise and extensive healthcare network, will be an anchor to accelerate Samsung’s efforts to support health systems and digital health partners through a truly connected care.”</span></p>
<p>“We are excited to join forces with Samsung,” added Mike McSherry, CEO, Xealth. “Xealth and Samsung share a common goal to advance the digital health space for truly connected care. Customer health data from wearables can fill in context that is missing to hospitals and bring more data analysis possibilities that were not available just with clinical records. Together with Samsung and our network of healthcare leaders, we will design a bridge between home health monitoring and clinical decision-making, with provider workflow considerations and patient engagement at the core of that effort.”</p>
<p>With Samsung’s capabilities and Xealth’s expertise, more hospitals and solution providers will be part of Samsung’s health ecosystem, which will provide a seamless experience across wellness and medical care and bring hyper-personalized, preventative care to people.</p>
<p>The acquisition is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including receipt of any required regulatory approvals, and is expected to close within 2025.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: small"><strong>About Xealth</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small">Xealth is a digital health company that enables health systems to efficiently deploy, integrate, and manage digital health tools for improved patient care. The platform allows providers to prescribe and monitor digital health content, apps, and services as easily as they would medications. Xealth spun out of the Providence health system in 2017, and investors include Advocate Health, Banner Health, Cleveland Clinic, MemorialCare Innovation Fund, Cerner, McKesson Ventures, Novartis, Philips, and ResMed as well as Providence Ventures and the Froedtert and Medical College of Wisconsin Health Network.</span></p>
