APACMed Innovation Community

Driving innovation and developing life-changing technologies

The APACMed Innovation Community (AIC) serves as a medtech innovation meeting ground for early- and mid-stage companies seeking support with scaling up, in the Asia Pacific region and beyond.

Of the estimated 30,000 medtech companies in the Asia Pacific, 90% or more are considered to be Small- and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs). Nearly USD 40 billion has been invested in medtech R&D in the region since the pandemic, a region which is looking at double-digit medtech industry growth and with said innovation serving as the lifeblood to achieving advancements in healthcare outcomes.

While many of these innovation concepts are backed by sound evidence, we face challenges of scale in the Asia Pacific. Enter the APACMed Innovation Community (AIC) – a medtech innovation ecosystem which brings together corporates, start-ups, investors, academia, incubators, advisors, and more. The APACMed SME portfolio consists of 200 companies and growing, spanning disease themes, geographies, and funding lifecycle status. Join AIC as we engage in capability development, matchmaking, policy advocacy, and more.
