How this events supports your growth 

China is transforming its healthcare system from a hospital-centred model towards one that places greater emphasis on prevention, primary and integrated care, and healthy ageing. Guided by the Healthy China 2030 strategy and the healthcare priorities of the 15th Five-Year Plan (2026–2030), the government is accelerating healthcare reform through digitalisation and the wider application of artificial intelligence (AI) to improve access, efficiency, and quality of care. Population ageing is a key driver of these reforms. By the end of 2025, China had an estimated 320 million people aged 60 and above, which increases the demand for elderly care, chronic disease management, rehabilitation, and long-term care. 

As one of the world’s largest economies and a major trading partner of the Netherlands and the EU, China continues to invest in healthcare reform, biomedical innovation, and the digital transformation of its healthcare system. These developments create opportunities for Dutch organisations with expertise in medical technology, digital health, integrated care, and elderly care, particularly where they can demonstrate proven clinical value, compliance with China’s regulatory framework, and solutions that can be implemented at scale.
