Hanwha Life is joining hands with Severance Hospital to address dementia, a key challenge in an ultra-aged society.

On June 30, Hanwha Life signed a memorandum of understanding with Severance Hospital at the 63rd Building in Yeouido to build a dementia care solution.

The agreement aims to establish a cooperation framework between leading financial and medical institutions to address social challenges such as the growing burden of long-term treatment and care for dementia patients, as well as the issue of "dementia money."

Dementia is a representative disease of an ultra-aged society, typically progressing over more than 10 years, and it simultaneously imposes economic and emotional burdens on patients, their families, and society as a whole.

In particular, the number of patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) continues to rise, and the scale of dementia patients is expected to expand in the future.

Hanwha Life possesses a financial infrastructure serving approximately 5.5 million customers, while Severance Hospital holds outstanding research achievements in dementia. Both institutions plan to combine their strengths through collaboration to build a new response model.

A Hanwha Life official, speaking to this newspaper by phone, stated, "This agreement is significant as it lays the foundation for pioneering cross-industry cooperation to overcome dementia."
