The 16th edition was accompanied for the first time by the 7th Medical Manufacturing Asia and the new RehaCare Asia, creating an unprecedented integrated platform spanning the entire healthcare value chain: development and manufacturing of medical technologies, use in clinical environments, rehabilitation and long-term care.

With over 1,000 exhibitors from 40 countries and regions, the trio of exhibitions displayed over 10,000 products and solutions. More than 14,000 trade visitors were expected, accompanied by 17 national pavilions bringing international perspectives and technologies.

The major innovation was the K-AI Medical Diagnostic Hub, integrating AI across the diagnostic journey with a Screening Centre, Smart Diagnostic Room and multiplatform technologies demonstrating applications from screening to clinical decision-making. The FTR4H conference extended dialogue into digital health, AI, robotics, wearables and emerging care models.

Medical Manufacturing Asia emphasized underlying technologies and capabilities: components, materials, precision engineering, automation, production technologies and advanced manufacturing. RehaCare Asia expanded the ecosystem into rehabilitation, mobility, assistive technology, accessibility, healthy aging and independent living.

SingHealth, Singapore's largest public healthcare cluster, joined as Healthcare Innovation Partner, bringing concrete clinical perspective. Its professionals contributed to the programme, notably Paradigm Shifts in Healthcare, exploring real-world applications of AI, robotics, innovation and sustainability within Singapore's healthcare environment.
