Reshaping the industry with Digital Healthcare 

In the spotlight at MEDICAL FAIR ASIA 2016 will be a platform dedicated to Digital 
Healthcare. Global key leaders from the industry will showcase new disruptive digital healthcare solutions such as remote and wireless healthcare, IT platforms, wearable devices and smarter medicine, and healthcare analytics. Industry experts will also be sharing their wealth of insights and expertise in this fast-growing area. By creating a platform for the
exchange of the latest innovations and technologies, MEDICAL FAIR ASIA continues to raise the overall capabilities and spur the growth of the region’s medical and healthcare sectors to meet the changing demands in both the public and private sectors.

Driven by rapid urbanization, increased population and increased longevity, the focus of medical and healthcare services within the region is turning to disease management and healthcare provision for the elderly, as well as preventive healthcare for the general population. Coupled with the launch of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) and the rise in affluence, the demand for quality medical services by both local and international patients within the region is rapidly increasing, opening up a wealth of opportunities.

As the region’s medical and healthcare sector continues on the robust growth, MEDICAL FAIR ASIA will continue to be the preferred strategic business platform for region’s medical and healthcare industries.
