Raising the Bar for Trust in the AI Era: BUZUD Becomes Singapore’s First Local MedTech Company to Achieve Dual ISO Certifications in AI Governance and Information Security

On 11 May 2026, Singapore-based medical technology company BUZUD held an official certification ceremony at its brand experience store on the first floor of Raffles Hospital, where it was awarded two internationally recognised certifications: ISO/IEC 42001:2023 for Artificial Intelligence Management Systems and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 for Information Security Management Systems

The certifications were presented by SETSCO Services CEO Chung Tying Chun, making BUZUD the first local medical technology company in Singapore to simultaneously achieve internationally recognised standards in both AI governance and information security. This milestone is seen not only as validation of the company’s internal management systems, but also as a significant achievement for Singapore’s medical technology sector in advancing trusted AI and responsible healthcare innovation.

The ceremony, held from 2:30 PM to 3:30 PM, was attended by guests from the technology, healthcare, and media industries. ISO/IEC 42001:2023 is the world’s first international standard for Artificial Intelligence Management Systems, covering governance, accountability, safety, compliance, and the lifecycle management of AI systems. ISO/IEC 27001:2022 is the world’s most widely adopted information security management standard, setting stringent requirements for data protection, privacy, and information risk management.

In recent years, Singapore has continued to accelerate its Smart Nation and AI development strategies, with artificial intelligence increasingly integrated into healthcare, chronic disease management, health data analytics, and intelligent healthcare services. However, beyond technological innovation, the true challenge of AI in healthcare lies in data security, ethical governance, and public trust. Given the highly sensitive nature of medical and personal health data, AI systems in healthcare are held to higher expectations around transparency, security, and traceability.

Against this backdrop, BUZUD’s achievement of both certifications marks an important shift for Singapore’s local medtech industry — from simply adopting AI technologies to establishing robust AI governance frameworks. It reflects not only technological advancement, but also Singapore’s broader commitment to building internationally aligned, trustworthy AI systems for healthcare, laying the groundwork for future global expansion in medical AI innovation.

Globally, only a limited number of organisations have obtained both certifications simultaneously, making BUZUD’s accomplishment particularly rare within the healthcare technology sector. Industry observers believe this milestone signals Singapore’s transition from traditional digital healthcare toward a new era of secure and trustworthy AI. As regulatory scrutiny of AI-powered healthcare solutions continues to intensify worldwide, companies with internationally recognised governance standards are expected to hold stronger competitive advantages in the global market.

Speaking at the ceremony, BUZUD CEO Frankie stated:

“Receiving these two international certifications marks an important milestone in BUZUD’s growth journey. Moving forward, we will continue to uphold the highest international standards in artificial intelligence, data security, and user services, while contributing to a more trustworthy and responsible AI ecosystem for the industry.”

Industry observers noted that BUZUD’s dual certification represents not only a breakthrough for the company, but also a reflection of Singapore’s accelerating alignment with global AI governance standards in healthcare. As AI-driven medical innovation rapidly evolves worldwide, Singapore is increasingly positioning itself as one of Asia’s emerging hubs for trusted healthcare AI.

BUZUD Strengthens Clinical Governance and Responsible AI Leadership with Dual International ISO Certifications

On 11 May 2026, BUZUD achieved a major milestone  in its healthcare technology journey with the official presentation of two internationally recognised certifications — ISO/IEC 42001:2023 for Artificial Intelligence Management Systems and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 for Information Security Management Systems — during a ceremony held at its Brand Experience Store on the first floor of Raffles Hospital.

The certifications were formally presented by Me Chung Tying Chun to Mr Frankie Fan, marking a significant advancement in BUZUD’s commitment to clinical governance, responsible AI deployment, cybersecurity resilience, and international best practices in healthcare technology management.

In an era where artificial intelligence is increasingly integrated into healthcare delivery, chronic disease management, remote monitoring, clinical workflows, and patient engagement, healthcare organisations are facing growing expectations around safety, accountability, transparency, and data protection. While AI presents enormous opportunities to transform healthcare outcomes, it also introduces important responsibilities relating to governance, cybersecurity, ethical oversight, and patient trust.

Healthcare is fundamentally a high-trust and high-responsibility industry. Decisions supported by digital technologies and AI systems can directly influence patient care, clinical interventions, health monitoring, and operational workflows. As such, stakeholders today expect healthcare technology providers not only to deliver innovation, but also to demonstrate robust governance structures, strong information security controls, transparent risk management processes, and responsible stewardship of sensitive healthcare data.

The attainment of ISO/IEC 42001:2023 signifies that BUZUD has established internationally aligned governance frameworks for the responsible management of artificial intelligence systems. This includes oversight mechanisms relating to ethical AI deployment, accountability, risk management, human supervision, operational controls, and continuous monitoring to support trustworthy and clinically responsible AI implementation.

Simultaneously, the ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification reinforces BUZUD’s commitment to maintaining internationally recognised standards for information security management, cybersecurity protection, data confidentiality, integrity, system resilience, and risk mitigation.

These certifications are particularly important for healthcare institutions, regulators, healthcare professionals, enterprise partners, and patients because they provide assurance that BUZUD’s digital ecosystem, platforms, backend infrastructure, and connected healthcare technologies are developed and managed within structured governance and security frameworks aligned with global standards.

Beyond BUZUD’s range of medical and digital health products, the certifications reflect the company’s broader organisational commitment to:

Responsible and ethical AI implementation

• Protection of patient and healthcare data

• Clinical governance and accountability

• Cybersecurity resilience and operational integrity

• Transparent risk management practices

• International compliance and governance maturity

• Long-term stakeholder trust and sustainability

For patients and healthcare users, this means greater confidence that their health information, digital interactions, and AI-supported healthcare experiences are managed with security, responsibility, and care. For healthcare providers and institutional partners, it demonstrates that BUZUD is committed to operating as a trusted healthcare technology partner capable of supporting modern healthcare ecosystems responsibly and sustainably.

Mr Frankie Fan stated:

“Achieving both ISO/IEC 42001 and ISO/IEC 27001 certifications is more than a corporate achievement — it is a strong affirmation of BUZUD’s commitment to clinical governance, responsible AI management, information security, and long-term stakeholder trust.

As AI becomes increasingly embedded in healthcare delivery and chronic disease management, innovation alone is not sufficient. Healthcare technology companies must also demonstrate accountability, transparency, ethical oversight, and robust governance to ensure that patient safety and data integrity remain protected at all times.

At BUZUD, we believe that medical AI must not only be intelligent, but also safe, ethical, secure, and clinically responsible. These internationally recognised certifications reinforce our responsibility to healthcare institutions, regulators, partners, and patients that BUZUD is committed to building a trusted medical AI ecosystem guided by the highest international standards.”

As BUZUD continues expanding its integrated healthcare ecosystem across AI-enabled healthcare solutions, connected chronic disease management, digital health platforms, and smart healthcare technologies, the company remains committed to advancing innovation responsibly while upholding the principles of governance, security, patient trust, and clinical accountability.

These certifications further strengthen BUZUD’s position as a healthcare technology company committed not only to innovation, but also to safeguarding the integrity, trustworthiness, and sustainability of healthcare in the AI era.
