Based on therapeutic area, the artificial intelligence (AI) in drug discovery market is segmented into oncology, infectious diseases, neurology, metabolic diseases, cardiovascular diseases, immunology, mental health, and others (respiratory diseases, nephrology, dermatological diseases, genetic disorders, inflammatory diseases, and gastrointestinal). The neurology segment held the fastest market share in the Al drug discovery market due to the increasing number of neurological disorders and the difficulties associated with drug discovery in this field, The use of Al technologies accelerates drug development because neurological diseases such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and multiple sclerosis are difficult to diagnose and treat.

According to the WHO, in 2021, neurological conditions affected over 3 billion people worldwide. This emphasizes the need for innovative healthcare solutions. Al-powered drug discovery platforms work well in neurology, allowing faster and more accurate analysis of complex neurological data to identify potential drug candidates. The increasing availability of large datasets from clinical trials, genomics, neuroimaging, and electronic health records (EHR) records, as well as the growth investments in neurology, also contribute to market growth. In 2023, venture investments in neurology companies were USD 1.14 billion in the US. Resources like the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) provide vast data for machine learning applications.

Based on the process, artificial intelligence (AI) in drug discovery market is broadly classified into target identification & selection, target validation, hit identification & prioritization, hit-to-lead identification/lead generation, lead optimization, and candidate selection & validation. Hit-to-lead identification/lead generation accounts for the largest process segment in this market; it is also expected to register the highest growth owing to its critical role in streamlining the early stages of the drug development process. AI can significantly reduce the number of compounds and experiments required to find and optimize leads. This procedure uses Al algorithms to analyse large datasets, such as chemical libraries and biological interactions, to identify potential drug candidates or hits and develop them into viable leads. AI helps address long design-make-test cycles across discovery journeys. Faster screening and better exploration of vast chemical libraries are fuelling market growth for AI solutions for hit-to-lead identification/lead generation. For example, activity prediction enables more targeted experiments, and predictive analytics can help forecast compound properties.

eSign.AI Named Sole Electronic Signature Technology Provider for Hong Kong Government’s CorpID Project, Building the Foundation for Digital Signing Infrastructure in Hong Kong

Published

on

By

HONG KONG, May 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As Hong Kong’s Digital Corporate Identity Platform (CorpID) counts down to its phased launch, eSign.AI has been appointed as the sole electronic signature vendor in the project, responsible for delivering core digital signing capabilities including digital signatures, certificate management, and signature verification services. CorpID is led by Nexify, a seasoned government systems integrator, as the prime contractor. The platform is expected to launch in phases starting late 2026, with multiple CorpID-based e-government services going live in mid-2027.

CorpID: Government-Grade Digital Identity Infrastructure for Hong Kong Enterprises

The Digital Corporate Identity Platform (CorpID) is an enterprise-level digital services platform launched by the Hong Kong SAR Government, developed under the oversight of the Digital Policy Office (DPO). It is designed to serve as the business equivalent of “iAM Smart,” providing a unified digital identity foundation for Hong Kong enterprises. CorpID’s core mission is to build an integrated digital government infrastructure — offering unified identity authentication, digital signing, form pre-filling, and e-licence storage — replacing paper-heavy, cumbersome traditional processes and enabling smart city development through seamless data connectivity.

The platform is open to companies incorporated under the Companies Ordinance (Cap. 622) and businesses registered under the Business Registration Ordinance (Cap. 310), including sole proprietorships and partnerships. The DPO requires all enterprise-related e-government services to support CorpID within 18 months of launch, and will continue expanding ecosystem coverage through sandbox initiatives, cross-industry identity standard interoperability, and fully online registration processes.

eSign.AI: The Digital Signing Engine Behind CorpID

eSign.AI is an AI-native electronic signature and contract automation platform built for enterprises worldwide, offering a complete signing framework from simple electronic signatures to the highest-level compliant digital signatures — meeting diverse regulatory requirements across industries and jurisdictions.

On the identity verification front, eSign.AI has completed integration with iAM Smart, enabling individual identity verification through Hong Kong’s citizen digital identity system, and providing legally valid digital certificate services for both enterprises and individuals.

Looking ahead, the eSign.AI SaaS platform will be deeply integrated with CorpID, providing enterprise and individual identity verification for Hong Kong businesses, and supporting both electronic and digital signing that complies with Hong Kong’s Electronic Transactions Ordinance — connecting the full digital contracting lifecycle for government and enterprise alike.

Getting Ahead of the AI Era: From eSignGlobal to eSign.AI

The electronic signature industry is undergoing a structural shift from “tooling” to “intelligence.” Market data underscores this acceleration: the AI-powered contract analysis tools market has grown from USD 3.32 billion in 2025 to USD 4.3 billion in 2026, at a CAGR of 29.6%. Signing is just one node in the contract lifecycle — document generation, workflow orchestration, compliance tracking, and post-execution management are all being transformed by AI, and the industry window is closing fast.

In April 2026, the company officially rebranded from eSignGlobal to eSign.AI, completing its strategic transformation from an e-signature tool provider to an AI-native contract automation platform. As the company’s spokesperson noted, this rebrand is not cosmetic — it is an acknowledgment of where the product actually is. Customers were already using eSign.AI to automate workflows that go far beyond the signature itself.

eSign Automation Skill was launched alongside the rebrand — an AI-powered signing automation framework for enterprise workflows that enables complete contract signing through natural language interaction, with no manual intervention required. Whether it is single-party approval, multi-party sequential signing, or large-scale parallel execution, an AI Agent can orchestrate the entire workflow in a single call. All signature initiations and status queries return structured JSON outputs, directly parseable by leading large language models and intelligent workflow systems.

eSign Automation is now available in the OpenClaw ecosystem and supports integration via Claude MCP, ChatGPT, and other leading AI platforms.

By combining AI automation capabilities with CorpID’s government-grade digital identity infrastructure, eSign.AI delivers a complete solution for Hong Kong enterprises — from identity verification to intelligent signing to full workflow automation.
