Dr. Eunsol Lee, co-founder and co-CEO of MediBloc, said, “We will establish a big data center for healthcare data with the help and support from the government organization, medical institution and other healthcare companies. The project will be a significant opportunity for our team to prove the feasibility of MediBloc mainnet, which we will officially launch at the end of this year.”
