"The 2012 Summit will focus on the globalization of the healthcare market, with an emphasis on Asia, diabetes and digital health. Our original mis- sion was to help enable transactions between America, the largest market in the world, and Sweden, one of the most innovative life science countries. However, over the last few years the sum- mit has seen an increased participation from many other countries including China, Japan, India, Singapore, Korea, Brazil and Israel. China is arguably the most attractive emerging pharmaceuti- cal market, growing by more than 20 percent a year. But we need to under- stand the market better to fully capture its potential. Diabetes is a global public health crisis. One in ten adults will have diabetes by 2030, posing a huge chal- lenge to healthcare systems worldwide. So this is a public health crisis that we need to shed more light on," Sana Alaj- movic explains.
