KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 6 — With an ever-growing population, the world, Asia, and Malaysia are in critical need of addressing the challenges, opportunities and growth in the health care sector, particularly in closing the gap of technological advancements and health care accessibilities within the Southeast Asian region. 

Future Healthcare Asia 2025 aims to be a platform for industry leaders to improve, adapt and ensure the forging of the right partnerships and collaborations between very specific key organisations, especially in the matters of digital and AI technology, patient experience, best practices, critical breakthroughs and transformation in health care systems, procedures and infrastructure.

Future Healthcare Asia 2025 with the theme “Empowering Malaysian Health Care, From Policy to Practice: Celebrating What Works, Confronting What’s Next” brings together top executives, policymakers, and researchers who are driving the future of health care in Malaysia and Southeast Asia region.

This two-day event is scheduled to be held on February 18 and 19, 2025 at Pullman KLCC, Kuala Lumpur, set to give opportunities for professionals across the health care spectrum such as clinicians, administrators, technologists, and entrepreneurs to collaborate and exchange knowledge in their respective fields.

Asia Event Group (AEG Media Sdn. Bhd.), a market-leading business programmes and events management company is organising this annual event for the second time since its inauguration as a platform for:

• Celebrating Success Stories: Highlight achievements in Malaysia’s health care system, including advancements in universal health care, telemedicine adoption, and public-private partnerships.
• Confronting Emerging Challenges: Address pressing issues like workforce shortages, the rise of non-communicable diseases, and adapting to a post-pandemic world.
• Fostering Policy-to-Practice Alignment: Encourage discussions on how to translate effective policies into impactful, scalable health care practices.

This conference will provide a key platform for experts to share challenges, use-cases, solutions, research, innovations, and promote collaborations across both public and private sector health care.

The event is expected to feature more than 300 industry players from both the public and private sectors, including government officials, health care professionals, academics, innovative solution providers, and leading brands. 

With CodeBlue (an editorially independent affiliate of Galen Center for Health & Social Policy) as AEG’s media-partner for this event, Future Healthcare Asia 2025 will also feature Galen Centre CEO Azrul Mohd Khalib joining as an expert panellist to discuss the topic “The Challenges of Health Care Malaysia: A Reality Check”, expecting to generate the interests of the many regulators and leading brands of the Malaysian and Southeast Asian health care industry.

Also scheduled to attend this event, Health Minister Dzulkefly Ahmad, remarked in his welcoming message: “Future Healthcare Asia 2025 will serve as a dynamic platform to bring together policymakers, health care professionals, researchers, innovators, and industry leaders to collaborate, exchange ideas, and inspire transformative solutions.

“The programme will highlight Malaysia’s progress in health care and provide a forum to explore topics such as health equity, digital transformation, sustainability, and effective health care delivery.

“This year’s theme, ‘Empowering Malaysian Health Care, From Policy to Practice: Celebrating What Works, Confronting What’s Next’, encapsulates the journey we are undertaking to bridge the gap between visionary health care policies and their real-world application.
