Grand Opening of 'Medlab Asia & Asia Health 2022' in Thailand

Anutin Charnvirakul, Minister of Public Health of Thailand, said, "Medical devices are one of the government's priorities that aims to empower Thailand into becoming a comprehensive medical hub that meets international standards. Additionally, the government's policy to drive Thailand towards Thailand 4.0 under the BCG model is focused on the medical device industry, to increase the procurement of medical devices from Thailand's innovation account by at least 30% and generating an income of approximately 40 billion baht within five years (2021-2025)."

Wouter Molman, Executive Vice President, Informa Markets, added, "The major challenge is the competition to develop advanced technology in medical laboratories. This is critical to preventing the ongoing threat of COVID-19 and emerging diseases worldwide. Medical technology companies are developing solutions, products, and technologies to battle the epidemic. Accordingly, the key trends expected to shape the medical device sector in Asia in 2022 are minimally invasive surgery, wireless technology, smart devices and augmented reality & robotics can be beneficial in supporting an operation or surgery.
