[SBA X IT Donga Joint Project] IT Donga, together with the Seoul Business Agency (SBA), introduces small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and startups participating in CES 2026 to showcase their capabilities to the world.




The Seoul Business Agency (SBA, CEO Kim Hyun-woo), an SME support organization striving to revitalize Seoul's startup ecosystem and discover excellent startups, is operating the Seoul Pavilion at CES in January 2026. The CES 2026 Seoul Pavilion supports a total of 70 startups with the participation of 19 startup support organizations based in Seoul, including autonomous districts, related agencies, and universities, led by the SBA. The Seoul Pavilion supports participating companies with various business programs such as on-site investment consultations, buyer matching, global IR pitching, and exhibition booth operation, laying the groundwork for global expansion.

Digital healthcare startup Itphy is showcasing its AI-based joint function analysis device 'RingDoc Motion' and digital rehabilitation platform 'RingDoc Care' at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2026) held in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA.

Through CES 2026, Itphy presents the End-to-End digitalization of musculoskeletal (MSK) patient management—ranging from pre-consultation interviews, precision measurement, and customized rehabilitation prescription to performance and monitoring—as its core value. In the pre-consultation stage, it supports medical interviews and automatically analyzes joint Range of Motion (ROM) using AI. The analysis results can streamline medical staff's judgment and consultation time. These results are linked with RingDoc Care to provide customized exercise prescriptions to patients, and patients can share app-based rehabilitation performance data with medical staff to increase treatment continuity and effectiveness.

Achievements based on clinical evidence for RingDoc Motion and RingDoc Care were also highlighted. Itphy has built clinical validity for its products based on a network of major university hospitals in Korea and secured data-based rehabilitation operation experience by supplying solutions to more than 20 institutions, including Kyung Hee University Medical Center and Seoul National University Bundang Hospital. In addition, a verification study involving 400 patients confirmed an achievement of improving joint range of motion by more than 20%. Such clinical evidence and operational cases acted as factors increasing the reliability of the platform and device at the CES site.

The exhibition focused on the standardization of precision measurement and the efficiency of rehabilitation operations. CES 2026 was attended not only by startup officials but also by officials from North American medical institutions and digital healthcare companies, leading to a series of inquiries from industry insiders about the standardization of joint function measurement, efficiency of rehabilitation protocol operation, and strengthening communication with patients based on data. Additionally, Itphy carried out on-site exhibition tasks such as booth operation, visitor response, product demo flow management, and meeting schedule coordination with supporters matched through the support of Kyung Hee University.

Starting with CES 2026, Itphy is earnestly launching its entry into the global market. It plans to expand Proof of Concept (PoC) discussions with local medical institutions and partners, centering on the US and India regions, and concretize data-based cooperation models along with product and service localization. Furthermore, based on the potential customer and partner connections secured at CES, it plans to unveil an AI-based solution that provides both clinical judgment assistance and procedural skill education in medical environments within the first half of this year.

Itphy Co-CEO Rhee Sung-min said, “At CES 2026, we confirmed that RingDoc Motion and RingDoc Care can substantially contribute to the treatment and clinical process leading to measurement, prescription, and monitoring.” Following this, Co-CEO Lee Jae-jun also stated, “We will quickly transition the collaborations discussed on-site into the execution stage and establish a standard for musculoskeletal rehabilitation based on data and AI.”
