Jurisdiction(s): U.S.
About the Organization: MyLÚA Health is an AI-powered early risk detection service that identifies and manages the risk of pregnancy-related complications. They have prioritized detection of mental health concerns first as they account for 25% of all preventable maternal mortality in the US, and provide human-centered and culturally inclusive services.
Legal Entity Type: For-profit
SDG(s): Good Health and Well Being, Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions, Reduced Inequalities
Legal Issue(s):

The MyLÚA Health team filed a Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) application, and they are now seeking assistance filing the U.S. national phase application by July 15, 2023. They would also appreciate an IP strategy consultation to discuss next steps in the nationalization process, including the most advantageous countries to file in. However, this is a secondary request.
