Perth, Australia August 14, 2023 - Advanced
Health Intelligence Ltd (ASX/NASDAQ: AHI) (“AHI” or the “Company”) is pleased to inform shareholders that
the Company has entered into a Collaboration Agreement with UAE-Based IntelliGen FZ-LLC to deploy the AHI technology throughout the Middle
East.
The Collaboration Agreement between AHI and IntelliGen
represents the successful conclusion of an extensive evaluation process by IntelliGen, which encompassed technology functionality, usability,
and health evaluation.
The collaboration between AHI and IntelliGen represents a ground-breaking initiative to address the pressing healthcare challenges in
the Middle East, particularly in Saudi Arabia. This partnership combines AHI’s advanced technology with IntelliGen’s deep
understanding of in-country needs and its founders’ extensive experience in healthcare provision and government collaboration.
At the heart of this collaboration is the purpose-focused
digital health platform designed to tackle the nation’s high rates of chronic disease. The platform’s primary goal is to
shift the healthcare paradigm from reactive to proactive, focusing on early identification and intervention of chronic diseases rather
than episodic care when the problem has already manifested.
It is widely recognised that the region has high
rates of chronic diseases. For instance, the World Health Organization (WHO) has reported that non-communicable diseases (NCDs), which
include chronic diseases like heart disease, stroke, cancer, diabetes, and chronic lung disease, account for 74% of global deaths and
58% of deaths in the Eastern Mediterranean region, which includes most Middle Eastern countries.i
Specifically, the prevalence of diabetes is exceptionally
high. According to the International Diabetes Federation, in 2019, approximately 55 million adults in the Middle East and North Africa
region (MENA) had diabetes, representing a prevalence rate of around 12.2%ii
among adults, which is one of the highest rates globally.

The Middle East, particularly Saudi Arabia, is
facing a significant health challenge with one of the world’s highest rates of chronic diseases. Conditions such as diabetes, heart
disease, and obesity are prevalent, putting a tremendous strain on healthcare systems and affecting the quality of life for millions
of individuals.
The traditional approach to healthcare, which
often involves treating patients once symptoms have manifested, is not sufficient to address this escalating issue. We need to shift
our focus towards prevention and early intervention, identifying the early markers of chronic diseases and introducing proper care pathways
before a health event occurs.
Digitising healthcare is the key to making this
shift. By leveraging IntelliGen’s and AHI’s integration of these cutting-edge technologies, we can collect, analyse, and
interpret health data on a scale never before possible. This enables healthcare providers to identify at-risk individuals, monitor disease
progression, and intervene at the earliest identifiable juncture. By doing so it will enable the introduction of proper care pathways
before a health event happens, ultimately improving patient outcomes and overall healthcare efficiency.
IntelliGen is delivering a purpose-specific digital
capability for the Saudi 2030 Health Initiative, which aims to revolutionise healthcare across all sectors. The Health Sector Transformation
Program, a key component of this initiative, seeks to establish a comprehensive, effective, and integrated health system that prioritises
the health of individuals and society, including citizens, residents, and visitors.
The program is grounded in the principle of value-based
care, promoting transparency and financial sustainability. It emphasises public health and disease prevention, striving to improve access
to health services through optimal coverage and equitable geographical distribution.
The program also aims to expand the provision
of e-health services and digital solutions, enhancing the quality of health services in line with the best evidence-based international
standards. It focuses on beneficiary satisfaction, fostering integrated healthcare systems covering all Kingdom regions.
The Health Sector Transformation Program also
prioritises societal awareness of traffic and safety, coordinating efforts among all health sector entities, Variable Retention Programs
(VRPs), and relevant government entities. This alignment ensures the strategic national goals are met during the transformation journey.
IntelliGen is proud to be part of this transformative initiative.
In this context, our collaboration with IntelliGen
is of paramount importance. Together, we aim to bring digitised healthcare and early intervention to the Middle East, with a specific
focus on the right care pathways for the reduction of chronic disease. Our combined expertise and commitment to innovation can make a
significant contribution to the Saudi 2030 Digital Health Initiative and the broader goal of improving health in the Middle East.
The collaboration between AHI and IntelliGen
has the potential to revolutionise healthcare delivery in the Saudi region. By focusing on early identification and intervention of chronic
diseases, they aim to foster a healthier future for Saudi Arabia and beyond.
The founders of IntelliGen - Zaher, Sayed Awad,
and Idris - bring their deep roots in healthcare provision across multiple continents and extensive experience working with and in governments
throughout the Middle East to this initiative. Their expertise, combined with AHI’s technology, will be instrumental in delivering
a solution that meets the region’s unique needs.
The success of any initiative is always reliant
on the expertise and connections brought by having the right people at the heart of the cause who champion such initiatives and lasting
results. The founders of IntelliGen, with their profound industry knowledge and extensive networks across the Middle East and North Africa
(MENA) region, are invaluable assets. Their insights into the healthcare landscape and their ability to forge strategic partnerships
are instrumental in driving forward these transformative initiatives. The IntelliGen founders’ commitment to innovation and vision
for a digitised, integrated healthcare system are key factors in successfully implementing these ambitious health sector transformations.

(SPV) to pursue commercial opportunities introduced by IntelliGen Solutions. |

of license fees through collaboration or direct investment in AHI. The issuance of these shares is contingent upon IntelliGen meeting
specific criteria related to generating license fees or investment, as outlined in the table below. Upon the successful fulfilment of
these criteria, AHI will seek shareholder approval for the issuance of the shares.

This structure provides a significant incentive
for IntelliGen and underscores our confidence in the value and potential of the collaboration with AHI.
The parties are targeting Q1 2024 as the initial
launch of the combined solution, and until such time AHI does not expect this collaboration to generate any revenue.
The pivotal forces driving this transformative
journey are the founders of IntelliGen:
Dr Walid Zaher, a renowned scientist and
medical doctor from Saudi Arabia, brings his expertise in leading transformative healthcare initiatives, such as the Emirati Genome Program,
to the collaboration.
Entrusted by the UAE government to oversee the
COVID-19 vaccine’s development and implementation, his leadership will be pivotal in developing the digital platform.
With over 35 years in healthcare informatics,
Magid Hassan Ahmed Idris brings a diverse skill set to the AHI collaboration. His experience in engineering, sales, marketing,
and management, along with his work with international organisations, provides him with a deep understanding of technology integration.
His success in positioning MEDICOM & myCare as a leading product in the Middle East demonstrates his ability to drive product success
and establish successful networks.
Co-founder of IntelliGen, Ms Nancy Sayed Awad,
brings extensive experience in healthcare informatics and commercial strategy to the collaboration. Her leadership roles in organisations
like IQVIA Middle East, Pfizer, and Sanofi have equipped her with valuable skills. As a former Senior Director at IQVIA Middle East,
she led the commercial team and formulated strategies for key commercial partnerships.
