APACMed was established to provide a unifying voice for the medical devices, equipment and in-vitro diagnostics industry in Asia Pacific. We are the first and only regional medical technology association that is headquartered in Asia, solely focused on matters of interest in Asia and the Pacific.
Our members represent the vast diversity of our industry – from pacemakers to contact lenses, to rapid test kits and high volume disposable devices, to large imaging equipment such as CT’s and MRI’s.
We engage with governments, regulators, payers, healthcare providers and others to shape policies that give patients timely access to quality healthcare in both developed and developing markets.
We seek diversity not only across the technologies we represent, but among the types of companies and organizations that constitute our membership base. Whether you are a U.S. or European multinational with interests in Asia, or whether your medtech business is headquartered in Suzhou, Kobe, Bangalore or Melbourne, you are likely to share many common challenges in bringing your innovations to market. We also welcome national industry associations, SME’s (Small & Medium sized Enterprises), suppliers and service providers.
