You will learn about market opportunities in Hong Kong's healthcare sector, such as trends and opportunities, upcoming large public-sector investments, recent policy to access to Greater Bay Area etc. The shortage of medical staffs and surging demands for quality healthcare create great opportunities for Swedish healthcare solutions in Hong Kong and beyond.
The low entry barriers into Hong Kong with no taxes or tariffs and simple regulatory for medical devices makes Hong Kong a great stepping stone in the region. With the close connection and interaction between Hong Kong and mainland China, the governments and authorities are simplifying the introduction of products and services across the border via Hong Kong. Medical devices registered in Hong Kong can be sold to designated healthcare institutions in the Greater Bay Area.
Hong Kong therefore can serve as a faster gateway to southern China. The Greater Bay Area, which includes Hong Kong, Macau and 9 cities in the Guangdong province, has a population of nearly 80 million and offers ample growth opportunities in e.g. medical equipment and technology, and smart healthcare. The new regulations opens door to this large and dynamic market for qualified products.
Business Sweden will also present the upcoming GBA Healthcare Delegation 2024 trip to Hong Kong and Shenzhen in May which will allow you to learn more about the market and connect with relevant stakeholders.
Join us in this webinar full of insights into trends in Chinese economy and policy landscape and how to make use of the opportunities in Hong Kong and Greater Bay Area.
