TCNT agreed to assign the licences in exchange for Ainos’ common stock shares with a total value of nearly $5.4m.

Ainos board chairman, president, and CEO Chun-Hsien (Eddy) Tsai said: “I believe this licensing will bolster our AI Nose and POCT technologies as we advance our AI Nose and POCT pipeline, including progressing our leading volatile organic compounds (VOC) POCT candidate, Ainos Flora, and jointly developing a VOC sensing platform with our Japanese partners.

“We are also moving forward with the Next-Gen Ainos Flora with the implementation of NVIDIA CUDA, targeting Q3 for design completion and Q4 for clinical trial kickoff. This all-stock licensing structure aligns TCNT’s interest with Ainos shareholders while preserving cash for our growth.”
