USTDA Supports High-Tech Healthcare in Thailand

Arlington, VA - The U.S. Trade and Development Agency will bring a delegation of Thai healthcare industry leaders to the United States to build partnerships with the United States and explore opportunities to bring high-tech U.S. solutions to Thailand's world-class medical facilities.

While in the United States from November 11 to 22, the 19-member delegation of government officials and hospital executives will travel to Washington, D.C., Boston and the San Francisco Bay Area to meet with U.S. companies and see demonstrations of cutting-edge U.S. technologies. The delegation will also visit Johns Hopkins Hospital and its Command Center in Baltimore, MD, to see how the hospital uses advanced data analytics technologies to increase efficiencies and enhance patient care. At the Dana Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, the delegates will gain insight into solutions to tackling some of the most challenging aspects of cancer care. In the Bay Area, they will engage with experts at Stanford University to learn how groundbreaking innovations in digital health, AI, robotics, and precision medicine are transforming medical care and research.

USTDA will host a public business briefing in Washington, D.C., on November 12 where U.S. health technology companies can learn about upcoming commercial opportunities from the delegation and meet one-on-one with delegates to present their innovative healthcare solutions.

Thailand's advanced medical facilities make the country a regional hub for medical tourism, and Thailand continues to prioritize modernizing its healthcare sector. The United States is well positioned to be a strategic partner in providing cutting-edge technologies like smart hospital infrastructure, telemedicine services, surgical robots, genomics, data analytics, and products to facilitate precision medicine and personalized care.

The reverse trade mission supports the U.S. government's Partnership for Global Infrastructure and Investment to deliver game-changing projects to close the infrastructure gap in developing countries and the Indo-Pacific Strategy.
