OKB's Revolutionary Split-Unit Hearing Aid Wins the 2025 International Innovation Award

Organized by Enterprise Asia, the International Innovation Awards (IIA) recognize outstanding global enterprises for their excellence in innovation. We are proud to announce that OKB, a brand under ApexBio (4155), has successfully stood out among numerous global competitors to win the 2025 International Innovation Award in the "Product Innovation" category. This honor recognizes the revolutionary design of our split-unit hearing aid. The award ceremony was held in Shanghai on November 28, 2025, where OKB’s sales and R&D executives accepted the prestigious award on behalf of the company.

Breaking away from traditional designs, the OKB Split-Unit Hearing Aid features an innovative separation of the main unit (controller) and the earphones. This design offers a new, superior option for individuals with hearing loss, effectively balancing comfort with advanced functionality. The product fully complies with the strict regulations for U.S. FDA OTC hearing aids and has successfully launched in U.S. retail channels.

Receiving the International Innovation Award serves as the highest validation of OKB’s exclusive split sound processing technology and strengthens our confidence in expanding to the global market. OKB believes that this product, with its strong market differentiation, will expand beyond Taiwan to benefit the hearing-impaired community worldwide, opening a new chapter in the hearing aid industry.
