Regional healthcare and finance leaders convened at the 2025 edition of Future of Health Asia to bridge the gap between policy, capital and care transformation.

The 2026 programme addresses the practical realities of health system transformation at a time when rising costs, ageing demographics and expanding technologies strain existing models. Attendees will engage with senior leaders to discuss sustainable healthcare financing, the integration of AI into clinical workflows, decentralised care delivery and scaling diagnostic infrastructure.

Speaking ahead of the event, Charles Ross, head of policy and insights, Asia-Pacific at Economist Enterprise, said: "I'm delighted to be chairing Future of Health Asia again. Over a busy day of panels, interviews and case studies, we'll explore the structural changes redefining healthcare systems and the innovations enabling progress. We will look more closely at the forces that could reshape medicine by 2035 and examine how Asian health systems can afford to support rapidly ageing populations. I'll also be asking what we have really learnt since covid-19—and whether we will be better prepared when the next outbreak hits. I look forward to seeing you in Singapore."
