Medical Taiwan, the premier international expo for medical, health, and care industries organized by TAITRA, is scheduled to be held at Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center Hall 2 (TaiNex2) from June 20th to 22nd, 2024. In the previous year, amidst the waning pandemic, the event successfully attracted nearly one thousand international buyers from 53 countries. Notably, a quarter of these attendees were high-ranking decision-makers or procurement personnel. Medical Taiwan serves as an invaluable platform for industry players to connect, fostering networking opportunities and expanding business horizons. Building upon its past achievements, the 2024 edition will focus on three themes—Supply Chain Gallery, Smart Medical, and All-age Healthcare—to facilitate businesses in seizing international opportunities across various sectors.

Medical Taiwan is backed and attended by key associations within Taiwan’s medical device industry, such as the Taiwan Medical and Biotech Industry Association, Taiwan Federation of Medical Devices Commercial Associations, and Taiwan Bio-medical Care Association, all collaborating to create a comprehensive procurement platform for the medical device supply chain in Taiwan. Of these associations, the Taiwan Medical and Biotech Industry Association is planning to unveil the Smart Medical Pavilion this year. This pavilion will showcase high-end, cutting-edge medical devices made in Taiwan that have received both domestic and international permits for medical device launches and have entered mass production. Notable products on display will include the Kinguide Robotic-Assisted Surgical System by Point Robotics, CUSMED connectCMF Flap Fixator by Ossaware Biotech, EPROB Navigation System by EPED Inc., and Optima Prone, a specialized pressure-reducing support surface solution designed by Wellell, alongside various other surgical equipment and high-end implantable medical devices, which underscores the strength and expertise of Taiwanese industry players in manufacturing high-end and smart medical devices.
Medical Taiwan Showcases Smart Solutions for Digital Health and All-Age CareÂ
With technology constantly evolving and mobile devices becoming increasingly prevalent, the digital health industry has experienced rapid growth. Research Nester projects that the global digital health market will reach an impressive US$980 billion by the end of 2035, exhibiting a compound growth rate of 15% from 2023 to 2035.
