Canadian Delegation Visits Health Intelligence Valley


VCBeat has learned that at this China-Israel corporate exchange event, Health Intelligence Valley continued to serve as a matchmaking platform, with the key difference being that the parties being connected were medical enterprise representatives from one country to another. It is believed that in the future, thanks to the continuous efforts of medical industry docking platforms like Health Intelligence Valley, more Chinese capital will enter the Canadian market, while Chinese medical enterprises will also gain more opportunities for learning and exchange.
