Redwood AI Corp. Signs LOI for AI-Enabled Pathogen Surveillance Initiative in East Africa

Redwood AI Corp. (CSE: AIRX) (OTCQB: RDWCF) (Frankfurt: Y0N, WKN: A422EZ) has announced the signing of a non-binding letter of intent with Dr. Placide Sesonga of the University of Global Health Equity in Rwanda to explore the development of a regional pathogen tracking and AI-enabled outbreak intelligence initiative across Central and East Africa. The proposed collaboration would focus initially on surveillance regions and mobility corridors in Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, combining pathogen monitoring, genomic sequencing, geospatial analytics and Redwood’s AI-driven predictive intelligence platform to support earlier detection of emerging infectious disease threats.

The parties plan to develop project protocols, deployment frameworks and stakeholder engagement strategies while pursuing potential funding opportunities. This initiative underscores the growing importance of artificial intelligence in public health, particularly in regions vulnerable to infectious disease outbreaks. By integrating AI with traditional epidemiological methods, the project aims to create a more proactive surveillance system that can identify and respond to threats before they escalate into widespread epidemics.

Redwood AI’s platform is designed to accelerate chemistry R&D, with applications in drug discovery and development, as well as defense and safety solutions. The company combines expertise in chemistry, AI, and manufacturing to streamline drug synthesis and scale-up. This pathogen surveillance initiative represents an expansion of its technology into public health, leveraging its predictive analytics to address real-world challenges.

The resignation of Graydon Bensler from Redwood’s board of directors, effective immediately, was also announced. No further details were provided regarding the departure.
