Organized by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council, the HKTDC Hong Kong International Medical and Healthcare Fair 2025 held from 26 to 28 May 2025 at the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre (HKCEC). This year, CUHK has displayed three innovative projects related to MedTech, GeronTech and traditional Chinese medicine.

The Medical Fair highlights advancements in healthcare by bringing together over 13,000 buyers and around 300 exhibitors from 13 countries, showcasing innovative medical instruments and technologies. It creates opportunities for collaboration, knowledge exchange, and partnerships that can drive innovation and improve healthcare delivery. The concurrent hosting of ASGH alongside the Medical Fair generated substantial business opportunities for both buyers and product developers.
