The demand for healthcare solutions in Indonesia is strongly increasing. Indonesia withholds numerous Life Sciences and Health opportunities, making it both an excellent starting point for Dutch companies that want to enter the ASEAN market, and a fruitful market for those who are already active in the region. Through the extension of the strategic SMM ASEAN Connected Care program (2021-2023), focusing on Indonesia, you can meet key opinion leaders, learn about current developments, and strengthen your position on the Indonesian healthcare market.

As the healthcare sector copes with its substantial carbon footprint, there’s a burgeoning shift towards sustainable practices, placing Dutch LSH organisations at the vanguard of integrating healthcare with environmental preservation. Drawing on global initiatives such as COP28 UAE and the SDGs, the Dutch LSH organisations are ideally situated to pioneer sustainable healthcare solutions, bolstered by the Netherlands’ dedicated efforts to diminish the environmental impact of healthcare. To translate the national and international strategies into opportunities for Dutch LSH organisations, TFHC is organizing a masterclass in collaboration with Philips and Signify. Are you a Dutch LSH organization with a sustainable solution and would you like to know more about the international opportunities in the field of climate and health? Then sign up for this physical masterclass!
