Growing your life sciences business in the US and China

Date: 16 October 2024
Time: 9:30am – 2pm
Location: The Bradfield Centre, 184 Cambridge Science Park Rd, Milton, Cambridge CB4 0GA


The pandemic threw the life sciences industry into the spotlight, with the UK emerging as a life sciences superpower.

In fact, UK life science exports were worth £24.2 billion in 2021.

From aging populations to aging equipment and infrastructure, global markets are calling out for innovative technologies to solve their challenges.

No more so than the two largest life sciences markets – the US and China. Between them, they accounted for almost $500 billion worth of medical imports in 2022.

And your business could be the answer. But how can you break into these high growth markets?

We’re hosting an exclusive face-to-face seminar which aims to give you invaluable insights and strategies to effectively navigate and thrive in the two largest healthcare markets in the world.

Join us to:

  • Discover the market opportunities for your business.
  • Get tips for navigating the regulatory landscape in both markets.
  • Explore new partnership opportunities within each market.

 

Why the US?

As the largest healthcare market in the world, the U.S. healthcare sector’s profit pools are expected to jump from $583 billion in 2022 to $819 billion by 2027.

Key growth areas include:

  • Medicare advantage.
  • Outpatient care settings.
  • Healthcare services and technology (HST).
  • Specialty pharmacy.

 

Why China?

China is the 2nd largest healthcare market in the world and is expected to triple in size by 2030.

Despite advancements in the provision of healthcare, China has a long way to meet the wide range of challenges it faces, including:

  • An ageing population.
  • Regional and urban/rural disparities.
  • Medical equipment upgrades.
  • The diagnosis/treatment/prevention of illnesses and diseases.

This includes:

  • Advanced medical devices and technologies.
