The Seoul National University Bundang Hospital and SK Telecom Co. said Monday their consortium succeeded in clinching a deal to provide a medical information system to Saudi Arabian hospitals.
The deal, worth 70 billion won (US$69.1 million), was struck with Saudi Arabia's Ministry of National Guard to provide the system to six hospitals over the next two years. The South Korean partners will also establish a joint venture with the ministry to expand sales to other countries in the Middle East.
