TFHC was commissioned by RVO to perform a healthcare market study for Texas in collaboration with NBSO Houston. The launch of this study marks an important first step to strengthen the bilateral healthcare relations between Texas and the Netherlands.

Did you know that Texas can be characterized by its..

  • Huge Market: US 2nd biggest state in size and population (28.7 million people) and has the 10th largest economy (1.706 trillion GDP) in the world.
  • Epic Centre of Health: home to most healthcare professionals and health clinics, amongst others the world’s largest medical centre (Texas Medical Centre/TMC), world’s largest children’s hospital (Texas Children’s Hospital) and world’s largest cancer hospital (MD Anderson Cancer Centre).
  • Health Giants: although the healthcare market is very scattered, every health system (hospital) in Texas is larger than any hospital in the Netherlands serving very large regions and populations.
