“We are working with IHH Healthcare Berhad (IHH), the second largest hospital group in the world, and this is the first time we attend this fair. Running 20 hospitals in Turkey, we are looking for new technologies and innovations in general medical equipment, especially for the two new hospitals we are opening in the coming year. We are sourcing globally and Hong Kong is one of our targets. This fair is organised in high quality and we are able to find what we need and make connections with suppliers. We expect the fair to continue to grow and we look forward to seeing more companies exhibiting in the fair in future!”
Hakan Evsine, Purchasing, Logistics and Biomedical Services Director, Acibadem Hospitals Group, Turkey
“We are a medical device supplier in Thailand, and we are exporting our products around the globe, including European countries, Asian countries and the Middle East. In this fair, we are looking for manufacturers and suppliers with a focus on wound care solutions. We consider this fair very impressive as the staff are all very helpful, efficient and detail-minded. The duration of the fair and the number of exhibitors in each category are well-arranged as we could have sufficient time to meet suppliers and discuss businesses in details.”
Kitipun Manosittisak, CEO, Bangkok Medisupply Co., Ltd, Thailand
“Our company imports diagnostic instruments, bandages, syringes, sutures and diapers for baby and adult for distribution in South Africa. This is the second time I attend this fair, and I have a great experience here. I am looking for business opportunities and potential suppliers on medical devices and I am able to see some new technologies and devices for tackling high blood pressure, reducing weight and pain killing for home use. Staff here are very helpful and informative and I look forward to coming again with my business partners.”

Here What Exhibitors Say |
|
“This is the second year that our University is exhibiting in the Hong Kong International Medical Devices and Supplies Fair. We are here to introduce the most updated research findings and seek for potential partnerships to apply our technologies. We are showcasing the results of 5 research projects, and one of them is the Chinese Visible Human Slicer which is an interactive system for the navigation of cross-section anatomy. We have already met companies with serious interests in our projects for start-up business.
We are very excited and confident about the fair because one of our research projects showcased in the fair last year has successfully turned into a new start-up business after meeting the right investors here.”
K.Y. Leung, Associate Director, Centre for Innovation and Technology, Faculty of Engineering, The Chinese University of Hong Kong
“Our company has over 40 years of experience selling our microbiological diagnostic products to over 135 countries globally. We specialise in producing lyophilised microorganism preparations for use in the clinical, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, dietary supplement, food, water, environmental and educational industries. This is the first time we participate in the fair and we find it very rewarding. Our goal here is to meet the end-users, which are laboratories, and also establish new distribution channels via buyers from the Chinese mainland. We successfully met the buyers from Hong Kong, the Chinese mainland and Vietnam, and we think this fair is productive.”
Michael Nilan, General Manager, Asia-Pacific
Delene Strunge, International Sales Manager, Microbiologics, the US
“Our company is one of the world’s largest disposable latex and nitrile examination glove producers in the world with 25 years of history. The examination gloves are considered as a medical device in most of the advanced countries with established regulations and that is why we have a strong market share in Japan and the US. We are looking for opportunities to further develop our markets in the Asia Pacific area, and we received a lot of enquiries from Hong Kong, Singapore, Brazil, and the Philippines etc. in the first two days. I think that this fair is very professionally organised, and we are provided with all the facilities we need. I have attended a lot of shows in the world with different scales, and I would say this one gives me a very positive feeling and the visitors are diversified.”
C.P Chia, Vice President, Marketing, Siam Sempermed Corporation Limited, Thailand
