UK digital health demonstration centre
The UK digital health demonstration centre is a government funded initiative. It takes a limited number of innovative providers of digital health solutions and services companies to important locations in China. It also offers a high-profile platform for a successful commercial entry into the Chinese market.
The first event took place in June when the ‘Healthcare is GREAT’ UK digital health demonstration centre opened at Ningbo Number 2 Hospital, Zhejiang Province.
Since then, nearly 200 senior Chinese healthcare officials, hospital leaders, professionals and key business people have visited the demonstration centre:
- to meet participating companies
- interact with their technology solutions
- discuss commercial opportunities
What participants say about the UK digital health demonstration centre
Elaine Taylor-Whilde, CEO, Nine Health CIC
NHCIC have found the demonstration centre a rewarding and pleasurable experience. We have been able to fix several meetings for our return visits with companies, hospitals and other organisations wishing to genuinely take this forward.
We can whole heartedly recommend the programme for other UK companies interested in exploring any potential opportunities.
Gary Disley, Managing Director, Cerno Health
Overall a terrific event staged by UKTI and of significant commercial value to Cerno Health
Charlotte Mew, China Account Lead, TPP Ltd
We were really impressed with the level of delegates who attended.
They were all high level decision makers and this meant we made lots of good contacts and have some strong leads to follow up.
