Preparations are already in full swing as a succession of leading brands across the globe confirmed an exciting showcase of their latest innovations during MCE Asia 2017.

Growing demand for energy efficiency in Asia Pacific

With rising populations and increasing income levels in emerging markets, construction activities in Asia Pacific are expected to burgeon.  Coupled with emerging green/smart building criterions, government support for sustainability and growing consumer concerns, the global HVAC-R market is expected to generate over $68.93 billion value by 2022, while the global photovoltaic market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.30% between 2014 and 2020, to be worth $345.59 billion by 2020. Asia Pacific is expected to be the main contributor to this growth.

The next stage of business matching: Technology-powered, personalized recommendations and meetings

Instead of pushing the same product news generally to every pre-registered visitor, MCE Asia 2017 will deliver personalized recommendations of exhibitor products, based on data insights gleaned during the visitor’s online pre-registration. The last edition of MCE Asia and the co-located Build Eco Xpo (BEX) Asia, together facilitated a total of 373 business meetings onsite, which are expected to generate more than US$130 million in green building transactions.

Knowledge is king

[20170906~20170908] MEDICAL FAIR THAILAND 2017 with Rehab Pavilion

Growing demand for innovative rehabilitation technology in the ASEAN region

From 6 to 8 September 2017 the MEDICAL FAIR THAILAND held at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center, Bangkok, will once again be the meeting point for physicians, hospital managers, health care professionals,  medical device dealers, medical professionals and representatives of state-run healthcare organisations. 700 exhibitors from over 40 countries will be presenting innovations and further developments for medicine and healthcare on 15,000 square metres of exhibition space. 8,500 trade visitors are expected at Thailand’s most important networking and business platform for the industry. Focal ranges include rehabilitation and orthopaedic technologies, medical information and communication technology as well as emergency medicine.

Innovations for rehabilitation and nursing care will be showcased at the Rehab Pavilion at MEDICAL FAIR THAILAND. Taking centre stage will be everyday aids, mobility and walking aids, orthopaedic aids, robotics, brain stimulation techniques for neurological rehabilitation as well as ultrasonic devices for muscular-skeletal diseases, to name but a few products.

In the ASEAN countries demand for innovative rehabilitation technology is rising constantly. In 2020, 46 million people or 7.8% of the population will be 65 years old. Orthopaedic disorders and non-infectious diseases are on the rise. Roughly one in three adults suffers from high blood pressure. At the same time, the rising prosperity of Asian households also leads to growing demands made on aids and nursing care.

The 3rd Advanced Rehab Technology Conference – ARTeC for short – held concurrently with the trade fair is entitled “Robotics for Mobility: Quality of Life for an Ageing World”. The conference focuses on robot-assisted rehabilitation and provides information on robots for balance and gait training. A special workshop addresses dysphagia, swallowing disorders that especially occur in the elderly.

The ARTeC Conference complements the trade fair and brings together high-calibre sectoral experts from science, practice and industry who are rising to the current challenges of an ageing society.

Planning for MEDICAL FAIR THAILAND has already started. Interested exhibitors can find further information at www.medicalfair-thailand.com.
