With medical technology continuing to evolve and offer the latest solutions and treatments to patients, Samsung Electronics Switzerland has been aiding the advancement by developing its products.
Samsung collaborated with Bottneuro AG, a Swiss MedTech startup dedicated to improving the diagnosis and treatment of Alzheimer’s disease and to bring an innovative and enhanced diagnostic and treatment solution to patients. Bottneuro AG has chosen Samsung Galaxy Tab S8+ Enterprise Edition hardware to store and record therapy data in the Bottneuro Solution.
Powerful Therapy through Innovative Technologies
Bottneuro AG’s technology identifies areas of the brain affected by the disease through 3D magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging data. Once identified, these regions can be targeted and electronically stimulated with Miamind® neurostimulator technology. The Galaxy Tab S8+ Enterprise Edition simplifies handling the Bottneuro solution via a graphical interface.
Patients who suffer from dementia often experience reduced cognitive function in the early stages of the disease, making the need for finding a device that is easy to operate and understand imperative for Bottneuro AG. With its intuitive interface and usability, the Galaxy Tab S8+ provided the optimal hardware for the Bottneuro solution.
“We were looking for a simple and reliable solution for our application. We found it with the Galaxy Tab S8+ 5G Enterprise Edition and Samsung is giving us great support in the development,” said Julius Klaas, CTO of Bottneuro AG.
Seamless Solutions in a Single Galaxy Tablet
The Galaxy Tab S8+ 5G Enterprise Edition offers a plethora of features and capabilities. It comes with a high-resolution Super AMOLED display providing brilliant clarity for both patients and healthcare providers and offers reliable long-lasting battery life.
The Miamind® neurostimulator is also directly powered by the Galaxy Tab S8+ 5G Enterprise Edition, and once treatment is complete, the Galaxy Tab S8+ automatically transmits diagnostic and treatment information contained within the Bottneuro solution to Bottneuro AG via 5G data connectivity, allowing patients to stay in the comfort of their home. Additionally, the Galaxy Tab S8+ 5G Enterprise Edition can be individually configured through Samsung Knox, keeping sensitive data and medical records private and protected.
Partnerships for the Future
Groundbreaking innovations such as these would not be possible without partnerships, and Samsung is proud to have been supporting and working with Bottneuro AG since its founding in 2021.
“We are pleased to offer Bottneuro AG a reliable, safe and simple solution with Samsung Knox and to support their novel therapy approach,” added Daniele Casella, Head of MX B2B Mobile at Samsung Switzerland.
The effectiveness of Bottneuro AG’s new therapeutic treatment will be tested in several clinical studies this year. While the treatment is not commercially available yet, Bottneuro AG and Samsung remain optimistic about the progress that can be made to treat Alzheimer’s disease.

![The signing ceremony took place in Kisumu, with Governor Prof. Anyang’ Nyong’o representing the county government and UN-Habitat Executive Director in Kenya, Anaclaudia Rossbach, signing on behalf of the UN agency. Under the agreement, both parties commit to jointly implementing the housing upgrade project, which Governor Nyong’o said will primarily target vulnerable groups. “The PINUA programme [is] designed to benefit the most vulnerable members of the community,” Nyong’o said, reaffirming his administration’s commitment to fostering sustainable neighborhoods equipped with essential services. Beginning November 1, 2025, the county government, working with UN-Habitat, will launch pilot projects in Kibuye Estate and Muhoroni Sub-County, based on designs and models developed through extensive public participation. The programme will focus on upgrading informal settlements by providing essential social infrastructure such as schools, sanitation facilities, affordable rental housing, early childhood development centres, and public open spaces. It also supports incremental housing models, allowing families to progressively build and eventually own decent homes. Rossbach emphasized UN-Habitat’s global commitment to driving transformative change in urban areas: “This partnership is crucial in advancing our new strategy, which focuses on improving housing access and digitally transforming informal settlements for everyone.” According to UN-Habitat housing architect Fred Omenya, the pilot phase will begin in January 2026 with the construction of two blocks of 24 housing units in Kibuye Estate.](https://businessinsights.africa/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/About-us-still-25957706200_7ca2db7e5e_k-80x60.jpg "Kisumu, UN-Habitat sign Ksh2.7bn deal for social housing upgrade")
