Oxford, UK; 21st September 2018: Sensyne Health plc (LSE: SENS) (the “Company”), the British clinical AI technology company, today announces it has signed a three year strategic agreement with Privitar to license its de-identification and privacy protection software.

Sensyne Health works in partnership with NHS Trusts to accelerate the discovery and development of new medicines and improve patient care through the analysis of anonymised patient data using its proprietary Clinical AI technology. The ability to anonymise patient data to the highest standards is therefore of paramount importance to the Company.

Privitar is recognised as a global leader in the development and supply of state of the art data privacy software, reflected in the fact that NHS Digital have also chosen to partner with the company as their software solution provider for patient de-identification.

Lord (Paul) Drayson, CEO of Sensyne Health, commented: “It is of critical importance that data anonymisation is undertaken to the highest standards and we are delighted to license Privitar technology as part of our strategy to ensure that this is achieved.”

Jason du Preez, CEO of Privitar, commented: “Some of the most exciting possibilities for the future of healthcare can be realised through AI technology, but this must be done with the utmost respect for patient privacy. We look forward to this collaboration with Sensyne on the effective application of privacy enhancing technologies in health informatics.”
