MedTech World

$2 trillion GDP. 86 million people. 37,000+ hospitals. One city that connects you to all of it.   When MedTech World chose Hong Kong for its Asia flagship event, the decision wasn't arbitrary. Behind Hong Kong sits the Greater Bay Area, a corridor where a concept validated this week can be manufactured at scale in Shenzhen within weeks. Where the world's only functioning cross-border health data bridge went live in December 2025. Where Mindray, United Imaging, and BGI are all within 45 minutes of the venue.    MedTech World Asia 2026 runs 26–28 August at the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre. We've written up the full case for why this geography matters right now.   Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/dwtZuNbK   Follow our MedTech World Asia page to stay updated on speakers, the agenda, and what's coming for August. 👇   #MTWAsia2026 #MedTechWorld #MedTechAsia #HongKong #GreaterBayArea #HealthTech

Surgical Disruptive Technology Summit (SDTS Europe) is coming to Malta on 14 November 2026, in partnership with MedTech World.   Founded in the US by Erik Wilson, SDTS was built on one premise: that keeping clinicians and industry leaders in separate rooms is slowing surgical innovation. Now, for the first time, that format comes to Europe.   "I am delighted to have finally been able to put together a wonderful team to launch SDTS in Europe." Manish Chand MD MBA PhD, Chair & Convenor, SDTS Europe   As Steve Bell, an esteemed member of the Steering Committee, puts it, "Europe is not the United States. We need that format in Europe to get to the real heart of surgical innovation."   Is Europe still relevant in global MedTech? Are US-built products designed for European patients? Can European AI-guided surgery challenge US dominance? These aren't rhetorical; they're the agenda.   The SDTS Europe Edition is organised by a steering committee that combines the founding energy of the US event with deep European and international clinical expertise: Steve Bell · Pietro Mascagni · Ozanan Meireles · Dylan Attard MD, MRCSI, MEnt. · Ken Nelson · Debby Keller · Ivanny Gorski Franklin · Michele Diana   Read the full article to find out more: https://lnkd.in/db8CPnqP   #MedTechWorld #SDTSEurope #MedTechEurope #SurgicalInnovation #Malta2026

Hong Kong isn't just a financial hub anymore; it's fast becoming one of the most compelling MedTech destinations in the world.   In the first edition of MedTech World Magazine, Dr Maggie L, Chief Manager of Life and Health Technology at Office for Attracting Strategic Enterprises, lays out exactly why. Four hours from Asia's major markets. 86 million people in the Greater Bay Area. Five world-class universities. A new regulatory body offering primary drug reviews, with approvals in under a year. And 30 years of digitised medical records covering 11.5 million patients.   The infrastructure is there. The talent is there. The capital is there: US$15.6 billion raised by pre-revenue biotech companies on HKEX since 2018 alone.   This is the city where MedTech World Asia 2026 takes place, 26–28 August at the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre.   If you're building, investing, or scaling in Asia, the conversation starts in Hong Kong.   Read the full magazine feature: https://lnkd.in/dbtjuuyu   Secure your place at MedTech World Asia 2026: https://lnkd.in/gDqqiAFz   #MTWAsia2026 #MedTechWorld #MedTechAsia #HongKong #MedTech #HealthTech #LifeSciences

Medtronic is moving to expand the reach of its Hugo™ robotic-assisted surgery system in the United States.   The company has submitted two FDA 510(k) applications that could extend Hugo’s use beyond urology into general surgery and gynecologic procedures, including hernia repair and hysterectomies.   If cleared, the expanded indications would mark another step in Medtronic’s effort to build a broader robotic surgery ecosystem, combining robotics, advanced surgical instruments, and procedural technologies within a single platform.   Read the full article for all details 👇 https://lnkd.in/didbVYTx   Up Next: MedTech World Asia 2026 26–28 Aug 2026 | Hong Kong Secure your pass: https://lnkd.in/dMZBXBHi #MedTech #SurgicalRobotics #Robotics #MedicalDevices #DigitalHealth #HealthcareInnovation #MTWAsia2026

Three weeks ago, West Palm Beach reminded us why we do this.   MedTech World North America 2026 wasn't just an event; it was proof that when the right people come together with genuine intention, something rare happens. No barriers. No noise. Just brilliant, driven minds, committed to getting breakthrough technologies to the patients who need them.   To every speaker, sponsor, partner, and attendee who showed up, and showed up the way you did, thank you. You made this more than we hoped for.   We're still processing how special it was. And we're already building what's next.   📍 MedTech World North America returns 5–7 May 2027 at the Hilton West Palm Beach.
