Invitation
Hong Kong's advanced medical device market is backed by a top-tier healthcare system and skilled professionals. Its strategic location as a super-connector between China and the global market presents unique opportunities for the industry. By leveraging its proximity to China, foreign medical devices can access the Mainland, such as to the Greater Bay Area through initiatives like the "Medical Connect"*. Similarly, Chinese medical device companies can expand globally by taking advantage of Hong Kong’s path towards becoming a prime Innovation and Technology hub, which offers funding, R&D capabilities, and a conducive business environment.
Join our seminar to explore Hong Kong's pivotal role in the medical device industry, where you can gain insights on global market trends, the local ecosystem, and regulatory updates. Discover the opportunities available for medical device companies and stay informed about regulatory requirements for medical device registration in Hong Kong.
* The measure allows designated healthcare institutes operating in the Greater Bay Area to use Hong Kong registered drugs with urgent clinical use, and medical devices used in Hong Kong public hospitals with urgent clinical use, subject to the approval by Guangdong Province
