About
The Asia Pacific Healthcare & Medical Tourism Summit 2020

The 2020 Asia Pacific Healthcare and Medical Tourism Awards were the fifth edition of the gathering, with a special recognition this year for all the healthcare hero’s in the region and their contribution to keeping all of us safe!

Our team took the initiative to visit each award winning facility, to honour their team and doctors, to personally thank them and show recognition for their achievements and accomplishments throughout the year. 

Event
What Our Delegates Look Forward To

Network with The Best

The industry has always had a high benchmark and there is much to share from experience know-how attained over the years of practice within this arena.

Case Studies and Master-Classes

Share knowledge with peers and key decisions makers across the healthcare industry, learning about the latest trends, practices, technologies and policies that can help shape your business for the future.

Foster Cross-Industry Collaborations

The event will bring together different segments of the industry giving an opportunity for firms to position themselves as a choice destination for the medical travelers from the region, and around the world.

Be Recognized

Our Awards evening is a key pillar of the summit, recognising best in class healthcare practices, individuals and providers across Asia Pacific.

The conference has grown from coverage on streams featuring Medical Travel operations to over-all industry practices, patient out-reach domestic and international, and innovations evolving the landscape.

Plenary sessions and Master-Classes allow leading organisations to present best practices and learn from one-another’s regional experiences on patient care/patient out-reach, medical travel, management & operations, leadership and healthcare investments.

The closed door curated environment allows delegates to feel comfortable in sharing and asking candid questions amongst their peers facing similar challenges in their own path to growth and success.

There will be adequate press and media coverage alongside the gala awards.
