SEOUL, South Korea, Jan. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- MedicosBiotech proudly announces its recognition at CES 2025, the world's premier technology event, as a recipient of the prestigious CES Innovation Award in the Digital Health category. This award honors excellence in innovation, technology, and design, spotlighting MedicosBiotech's groundbreaking chronic wound care solution, Cure Silk.
Cure Silk revolutionizes chronic wound treatment by combining advanced artificial intelligence (AI) with spider silk protein-based therapeutic patches. This innovative solution empowers users through the Cure Silk App, which utilizes a smartphone camera to capture and analyze wound images. With AI-driven diagnostics, the app identifies wound types and severity, offering tailored treatment recommendations. This user-friendly technology ensures that anyone, even without medical expertise, can manage chronic wounds at home.
At the core of Cure Silk is its spider silk protein-based patch, a breakthrough innovation led by MedicosBiotech CEO, Dr. Wonmin Yoo. This patch is highly effective for treating stage 3–4 pressure ulcers and grade 5–6 diabetic foot ulcers—conditions that have long lacked effective solutions. MedicosBiotech anticipates South Korea's Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) Class II medical device approval for Cure Silk in early 2025.
Spider silk protein, known for its strength, elasticity, and biocompatibility, has been used in wound care for over 2,000 years but was previously hindered by production challenges. MedicosBiotech's synthetic biology advancements have made scalable production possible, unlocking the full potential of this remarkable material.
"This award recognizes MedicosBiotech's innovative fusion of AI and biotechnology," said Soon Cheol Daniel Kim, COO of MedicosBiotech. "Cure Silk is an affordable, easy-to-use solution that enhances access to chronic wound care, contributing to a more inclusive global healthcare system."

MedicosBiotech Wins CES 2025 Innovation Award in Digital Health
SINGAPORE, Jan. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Coda, a global leader in digital content monetization, today announced that it is integrating Unity's In‑App Purchasing (IAP) SDK with Coda's global web store platforms. This collaboration offers developers a single place to manage and optimize their entire digital catalog across mobile, web, and PC - directly through Unity's existing IAP workflow.
With just a few lines of code, developers can launch secure, branded web stores powered by Coda - offering players more ways to purchase securely while improving their margins.
The integration is powered by Coda's Merchant of Record (MoR) solution, which is already trusted by leading publishers and fast-growing studios worldwide. As the legal seller in each market, Coda manages payments, fraud prevention, tax remittance, invoicing, and compliance across more than 70 markets and over 400 payment methods. This gives developers more time to focus on the game and the player experience.
"As the games industry moves beyond closed ecosystems, developers of every size want more flexibility and control over how they grow," said Shane Happach, CEO of Coda. "Our integration with Unity's IAP SDK gives creators more choice in how they launch and operate their own stores, wherever their players are, minus the complexity of managing global payments or compliance. This reflects Coda's commitment to democratizing game development and helping every studio, large or small, succeed on their own terms."
As web-based purchasing becomes a more practical part of developers' business mix, interest in direct-to-consumer web stores continues to grow. Today, these channels already account for roughly 26% of mobile gaming revenue in East and Southeast Asia, according to research from Niko Partners and Coda.
First-party web stores give developers greater control over pricing, promotions, and player communication, but introduce operational complexity across payments, compliance, fraud, and support. Coda removes these barriers with a scalable payments and risk platform, integrated directly into Unity's workflow.
Coda's integration with Unity's IAP sets a new D2C standard by bringing out-of-app monetization into developers' existing workflows, removing operational complexity, and making it easier to run web stores at a global scale.
