What is MedTech Co-create
Upholding the commitment to expedite the translation of biomedical technologies, we have launched the latest initiative: MedTech Co-create.
Curated by HKSTP’s Institute for Translational Research (ITR), MedTech Co-create is a platform to stimulate technology co-creation and adoption in our ecosystem. We aim to cultivate a culture of partnership across industries and technologies to reshape the future of healthcare.
We are a strong believer in collaboration. We have built the most vibrant ecosystem for startups to connect and inspire each other. Being an enabler, we are skilled at empowering innovators to think out of the box with their peers to spark world-changing ideas.
MedTech Co-create is one of our initiatives to build an integrated healthcare system, connecting the dots along the entire patient journey from disease prevention, diagnosis, treatment, monitoring and rehabilitation.
