Update – Trade Mission postponed
Southeast Asia remains one of the fastest-growing healthcare regions globally, driven by ageing populations, rising chronic diseases, rapid digitalisation, and strong government reform agendas. Malaysia continues to advance its long-term healthcare reform plans, while Singapore is further accelerating its prevention-focused “3 Beyonds” strategy and digital health transformation.
Task Force Health Care (TFHC) is currently further developing the Malaysia & Singapore Trade Mission programme in close coordination with regional stakeholders and Smart Health Asia partners. The mission, including participation in Smart Health Asia in Singapore, is being rescheduled to ensure the strongest possible programme and strategic engagement opportunities for participating organisations.
The updated programme will continue to provide Dutch Life Sciences & Health organisations access to policymakers, public and private hospital groups, research institutes, and strategic partners across two key ASEAN healthcare markets.
Organisations interested in joining are encouraged to register their interest and will receive priority updates once the revised mission dates are confirmed.
