The funds will support Centre Medical in continuing to implement its internationalization strategy and further expanding its presence in Japan and Southeast Asia.
Centre Medical XianDe Medical, founded in 2014 by Professor Lin Yixian, a leading cardiovascular specialist in Hong Kong, brings together top-tier international medical and management talents from China, Japan, and across Asia. The company is committed to building the most professional cardiovascular specialty clinic chain brand in Asia. Currently, it operates three clinics in Hong Kong, providing one-stop cardiovascular specialty medical services covering pre-operative, intra-operative, and rehabilitation care.
Xiande Medical will continue to implement its international expansion strategy, initially perfecting its global footprint within the next year in Japan, Indonesia, and other Southeast Asian regions by collaborating with local top-tier physician teams. Meanwhile, leveraging sustained and deepening cooperation with Hong Kong Asia Healthcare Group and strategic partners across Southeast Asian countries, Xiande Medical will utilize its reserve of Asia’s leading physicians and premium surgical facilities to jointly develop undervalued healthcare service markets with local strategic investment institutions. By introducing the highest-quality physician resources, innovative technologies, and service concepts from across Asia to regions in Southeast Asia with relatively scarce medical resources, Xiande Medical aims to ultimately achieve a pan-Asian presence characterized by professional leadership and operational efficiency.

We are honored to partner with Qichi Capital in this funding round. I believe that, with the support of all shareholders, Xiande Medical will continue to accelerate its development, forge partnerships with more collaborators across diverse regions in Asia, and rapidly complete its strategic layout throughout the Asian market.
Dr. Li Bin, Founder of Qingchi CapitalStatement: Professor Lin Yixian is a globally recognized top expert in the field of structural heart disease. Qingchi Capital is delighted to participate in and support Professor Lin’s expansion of Xiande Cardiovascular Specialty Clinic Chain, which he founded, into Asian markets beyond Hong Kong.

The incidence of cardiovascular diseases and the unmet demand for routine medical care are increasing day by day. We believe that, under Professor Lin’s leadership and with the support and synergy of Hong Kong Asia Healthcare Group, Xiande Cardiovascular Clinic Chain will successfully replicate its clinical expertise and healthcare management experience—already validated through years of practice in the Hong Kong market—and extend them to more countries and regions in Asia, thereby benefiting a broad patient population in these localities.
