SoftMining S.r.l. (also stylized as SoftMining) is an Italian company described by the University of Salerno as an AI-powered drug discovery spin-off focused on computational design of small molecules and biomedical materials.[1][2]

History

SoftMining is listed among the University of Salerno spin-offs, which describe it as developing methods and algorithms for computational drug design and biomaterials.[1] An early profile in local business press described the initiative as applying computational methods to pharmaceutical research and materials design.[3]

Activities

According to public partner profiles, SoftMining develops computational tools and AI-based methods to support research pipelines for small molecules and biomaterials, with additional applications in digital health and semantic analysis.[2]

Research projects

NEWROAD (EU4Health)

SoftMining is involved in NEWROAD (Open Platform for European Networking and Repurposing of Oncological Assets and Drugs), an EU4Health-funded project aimed at developing an EU-wide capability and open collaborative platform for systematic drug repurposing in oncology.[4][5]

REPO4EU

SoftMining is listed as a community member of REPO4EU, an EU-funded initiative focused on drug repurposing.[6]

Recognition

ECHealth (IRCAI Global Top 100, 2021)

SoftMining's ECHealth project appears in IRCAI's Global Top 100 list (2021).[7]

SM-COVID-19

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Wired Italia reported on Sm_Covid19, describing it as a contact-tracing proposal developed by SoftMining, a University of Salerno spin-off, and discussing its design and privacy implications.[8]

The Corriere della Sera Dataroom column also mentioned an app named SM_Covid19 developed by SoftMining in the context of technological tools for managing COVID-19.[9]

Publications

In 2021, the Journal of Medical Internet Research published a correlational study by authors affiliated with the University of Salerno on evaluating epidemiological risk using open contact-tracing data (e28947).[10]
