Executive Summary
China has prioritised support for medtech as one way of meeting the healthcare needs of its vast and ageing population.

A recent UK DTI Global Watch Mission aimed to illustrate just that for UK companies, by providing contacts and knowledge to help ensure that China's ambitions represent an opportunity for collaboration rather than a threat to future business.
