The Government of Ontario is organizing a Life Sciences Export Business Mission to Singapore in conjunction with the Medical Fair Asia 2026 trade show, with an optional business outreach program in Indonesia.
Medical Fair Asia is a leading biennial healthcare and MedTech exhibition held in Singapore and is widely recognized as Southeast Asia’s premier trade show for the medical and healthcare industry. Established in 1997, the event brings together a global audience of healthcare professionals, manufacturers, distributors, investors, and government stakeholders to explore innovations across the hospital, diagnostic, pharmaceutical, medical technology, and rehabilitation sectors. Hosted at Marina Bay Sands from September 9–11, 2026, the exhibition features exhibitors from over 45 countries and regions, alongside conferences and forums addressing emerging trends such as digital health, AI, and healthcare delivery transformation.
For Ontario life sciences companies, attending Medical Fair Asia offers a strategic gateway into one of the fastest-growing healthcare markets globally. The event provides direct access to key buyers, distributors, and decision-makers from across Southeast Asia and beyond, enabling companies to expand export opportunities, establish regional partnerships, and better understand evolving regulatory and market needs.
To maximize the benefits of the trip, we have an optional reach-out program to Jakarta, Indonesia (Sep 14-15) to explore business potential in the country.
The planned program includes:
• 1:1 export advice and consultation
• Turnkey exhibit space within the Ontario pavilion
• Curated B2B matchmaking program in Singapore
• Company listing as an exhibitor on the event website
• Company listing on the SourceFromOntario website
• Marketing support, including a company directory
• In-market follow-up and support through Ontario's Trade & Investment Office in Singapore
