Event Highlight | Asia Summit on Global Health (ASGH) (11 – 12 May 2026)
Positioned as Asia’s premier event on health innovation and investment, the 6th Asia Summit on Global Health (ASGH) was jointly organised by the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) and the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) on 11 – 12 May 2026 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC) under the theme “Fuelling Healthcare Breakthroughs”.
The summit convenes over 90 influential international healthcare officials, research and medical experts, start-ups, investors, and business leaders from related industries to explore global healthcare trends, with a focus on frontier technologies, AI breakthroughs, pandemic preparedness, silver health, as well as innovation in Chinese medicine, in alignment with the National 15th Five-Year Plan.
This year, the ASGH gathered some 3,000 participants from 43 countries and regions and arranged over 400 one-on-one deal-making meetings, while also facilitating the signing of multiple cooperation agreements, with a strong focus on the application of artificial intelligence.
As one of the main supporting exhibitors, the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) featured ten start-up teams alongside our three HKTDC Start-up Express 2025 Awardees at the Health Innovation Showcase. Together, we displayed a wide range of biotechnology, digital health and medical technologies in the ASGH Business Hub and the InnoHealth Showcase, driving advancement in the healthcare sector and promoting a sustainable future.
