VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / September 12, 2025 / Onco-Innovations Limited (CBOE CA:ONCO)(Frankfurt:W1H)(WKN:A3EKSZ)(OTCQB:ONNVF) ("Onco" or the "Company")is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, Inka Health Corp. ("Inka Health" or "Inka"), will chair and lead the fourth roundtable of Colorectal Cancer Canada's (CRC) Catalysts: Innovating for Tomorrow Series, a virtual event expected to take place this fall, which will focus on data innovation and digital trust in oncology. The role reflects Onco-Innovations growing involvement in guiding national discussions on areas that are becoming central to the evolution of cancer care for patients and health systems alike.

In leading this roundtable, Onco-Innovations will help guide discussions on the integration of artificial intelligence, secure data sharing, and digital trust in oncology. The session will also explore how emerging data sources, including patient support programs and synthetic datasets, can be applied to advance precision medicine globally. These themes are increasingly relevant as healthcare systems seek practical ways to harness new technologies while maintaining patient confidence and ensuring measurable improvements in cancer care.

The roundtable will be chaired by Inka Health Co-Founder Dr. Paul Arora, with Dr. Steve Jones, Senior Scientific Advisor to Onco-Innovations and a Director at the Genome Sciences Centre at BC Cancer, Dr. Winson Cheung, Full Professor of Medicine and Oncology at the University of Calgary and advisor to Onco-Innovations, and Inka Health Co-Founder Alind Gupta serving as expert speakers. Their participation reflects the calibre of leadership driving this initiative convening top-tier experts and stakeholders from across the oncology ecosystem. This engagement strengthens Onco-Innovations capacity to translate technological expertise into meaningful partnerships, policy influence, and market opportunities in the rapidly expanding field of AI-enabled healthcare.

"The real challenge in oncology is not generating more data, but creating the trust, interoperability, and intelligence that allow those data to actually improve care. We see opportunities to build systems that respect patients, empower clinicians, and accelerate research in ways that markets and health systems alike can measure. That is the conversation we want to advance at this roundtable," stated Paul Arora, Co-Founder of Inka Health.

The CRC Catalysts: Innovating for Tomorrow Roundtable Series is a new program developed by Colorectal Cancer Canada that builds upon ten years of earlier roundtable initiatives and aims to accelerate progress in colorectal cancer research and care by mirroring the "Cancer Moonshot" objectives and compressing a decade of progress into five years¹. The series consists of seven themed conversations beginning this fall, each involving panels of expert stakeholders including clinicians, researchers, patient advocates, policymakers, and industry leaders who will address critical topics such as data innovation and digital trust². By engaging in this initiative Onco-Innovations reinforce their commitment to advancing precision medicine and contributing to a national dialogue focused on innovation in cancer care.
