On October 28th, the 88th China International Medical Device Expo (CMEF) and 35th China International Medical Device Design and Manufacturing Technology Exhibition (ICMD) opened at the Shenzhen International Convention and Exhibition Center. Nearly 4000 brand enterprises from over 20 countries and regions have made a concentrated appearance with tens of thousands of products.
The theme of this CMEF is "Innovative Technology, Smart Leading the Future", with an overall exhibition and conference area of nearly 200000 square meters. The 4-day exhibition (October 28-31) held more than 60 forums and conferences, gathering nearly 700 industry experts, elites, and academicians, bringing a high-end intellectual fusion and cutting-edge perspective collision ideological feast to the global health industry.
Multiple high-end medical technologies and products launched globally
This exhibition has a total of 9 exhibition halls, showcasing innovative technology products in fields such as medical imaging, in vitro diagnosis, medical electronics, medical optics, hospital construction, operating rooms, disinfection and sensing, medical consumables, orthopedics, rehabilitation and elderly care, and medical device production and supply chain, covering many new products of cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, human-machine interaction, gene sequencing, mobile internet, big data, cloud platforms, etc. There are many new technologies and products that have been launched globally for the first time.
Entering Hall 12, multiple cutting-edge high-end medical devices from both domestic and international markets are showcasing Otai Medical's all-new generation of magnetic resonance technology research and development teams? Xuanying 1.5T superconducting magnetic resonance; Merrill Lynch Medical brings independently developed lung assessment instruments; CNNC Ankerui debuted with the world's first CT circular frame radiotherapy platform - TOMO.
In the highly anticipated "Medical Robot Exhibition Area", an exhibitor is sitting on the operating platform, performing surgery on a rose through an endoscope, attracting onlookers to try it out. It is understood that this year's medical robot exhibition area showcases many innovative medical robot products, including four arm endoscopic surgery robots, total orthopedic surgery assistance robots, independently developed orthopedic joint surgery robots that can simultaneously cover both hip and knee joints, and the first domestically approved navigation+automatic execution orthopedic intelligent surgery system.
With the increasing integration of AI technology into the medical industry and the continuous deepening of the application of medical robots in the medical field, the process of medical "digital intelligence" is constantly accelerating.
Undoubtedly, AI has been increasingly accepted and applied by society, playing a huge role in the manufacturing and production of medical equipment, "said Guo Qiyong, former Vice President of China Medical University and former Dean of Shengjing Hospital affiliated with China Medical University.
Hao Deming, Executive Vice President of the China Association of Non Public Medical Institutions, stated that the high-quality development of medical quality and safe medical care cannot be achieved without the support of high-end medical devices. Especially artificial intelligence products, they are playing an increasingly important role in clinical applications.
Build a full industry chain service platform
According to the "2023 Medical Device Blue Book" data, as of the end of 2022, the total number of Chinese medical device manufacturers reached 32632, with a revenue of approximately 1240 billion yuan, an increase of about 20% compared to the previous year, and accounting for approximately 27% of the global medical device market.
As a full industry chain medical device expo, this CMEF integrates product technology, new product launches, procurement and trade, brand communication, scientific research cooperation, academic forums, and education and training; By forming an international level "exhibition matrix" through multiple segmented exhibitions and sub brand linkage, we aim to build a high-level, specialized, market-oriented, and industry-leading "aircraft carrier level" global medical device industry comprehensive service platform.
As a sub brand of CMEF's innovative launch, ICMD focuses on product technology exhibitions, trade procurement, communication, and cooperation in the upstream industry of medical device manufacturing. At this exhibition, nearly 600 domestic and foreign brand enterprises and over 10000 products have made a concentrated appearance, contributing to the transformation and upgrading of the upstream medical device industry.
In addition, more than 500 brand exhibitors in the field of rehabilitation and elderly care are showcasing over 10000 products and services in the global scale rehabilitation robot cluster, rehabilitation treatment and rehabilitation engineering, brain computer interface technology, medical beauty, smart elderly care, welfare aids, sleep health, orthopedic prosthetics, aging adaptation, nursing care, traditional Chinese medicine, health management, health preservation, physical therapy massage, nutrition and health categories.
CMEF, as the global flagship medical device exhibition platform, continues to promote international exchanges, cross-border trade, and multilateral cooperation in multiple fields in the international development of the industry.
