CEIBS Global EMBA Master Class: The Challenges of The Healthcare Industries in China
Please join us on November 3, 2022 for this offline Master Class with CEIBS Professor Eric Bouteiller on The Challenges of The Healthcare Industries in China.
About the event
Since 2015, China has been extremely successful in creating a regulatory framework and an eco-system to boost innovation in healthcare. There is now a surge in new ventures in pharmaceutical and biotechnologies that will impact the local but also the global markets. MedTech and Diagnostic industries are also changing fast. Healthcare services, like Hospitals or Nursing Homes, are left behind waiting for positive policies. Manufacturers are adapting to the new rules of the game and are facing numerous challenges in terms of policies but also management. Prof Eric will share his analysis but also some possible solutions. It will be followed by a discussion with a panel of representative companies with Global EMBA alumni.
