WHY JOIN?
KO R E A
THAILAND
Recently the Korean government has chosen the healthcare
industry as a new engine for growth. As a sign of that, the Korean
healthcare market has shown higher growth rates compared to
other OECD countries in the previous years.
Thailand is a key player in the Asian healthcare sector. This is due
to both an extensive private sector and a very well established
public universal healthcare system. The country is experiencing a
growing demand for premium medical devices, welfare technology,
care products and services.
Korea are experiencing a rapid increase in the ageing of the population. The percentage of elderly Koreans is much higher compared to the average of OECD members. Healthcare expenditure
has also been soaring dramatically, experiencing the highest
growth (11.6% per capita) amongst OECD members (6.7% per
capita) from 2000 to 2008.
•
Due to the rapidly increasing ageing population, medical
devices and rehabilitation facilities are becoming important.
With a growing demand for high quality welfare solutions and
facilities, IT-converged devices and various facilities are being
implemented.
•
Korea is a world leader in hospital and mobile healthcare IT
where hospital resources and patient information are exchanged
and managed through digital devices in real-time.
•
Korean government recently started to divert a large share of
R&D funding into healthcare. Focus is on pharmaceuticals and
biotechnology. This trend currently spreads to hospitals to
purchase innovative treatment technology, IT solutions,
medical robots, etc.
In recent years, Thailand has experienced a population growth
driven by a high birth rate, low mortality and increased life expectancy. More than 66 million people are living in Thailand, and
over the next ten years, it is estimated that 17 per cent of the
population will be elderly.
•
Thailand has 34 JCI accredited hospitals out of more than
1,000 public and more than 325 private hospitals with a total
of approximately 130,000 hospital beds (private: +40,000,
public: +93,000)
•
Per-capita spending on healthcare almost US$240 and the
healthcare expenditure is expected to grow by 8.4 per cent to
US$25 billion in 2020.
•
Thailand, as one of the world’s top markets for medical tourism, continues to see a rising number of international patients.
About 3 million international patients arrive every year and the
revenue from medical tourism has grown 15 per cent a year
over the past decade. The total revenue from medical tourism in Thailand amounted to US$4.31 billion in 2013 (2012:
US$4.0 billion, 2011: US$3.2 billion).
•
In 2013, the Danish Ministry of Health and Prevention and
the Korean Ministry of Health and Welfare signed a MoU that
encourages further cooperation between Denmark and Korea
in the healthcare industry.

Healthcare Business Delegation to Korea and Thailand, 31 August - 4 September 2015
GENERAL CONDITIONS FOR PARTICIPATION IN EXPORT PROMOTION EVENTS
UNDER THE AUSPICES OF THE CONFEDERATION OF DANISH INDUSTRY (DI)
1. Basis of the agreement/contract
The contractual basis for participation in a collective export
promotion event under the auspices of DI is comprised by:
1) a binding registration form filled in and signed by a duly authorized representative of the company, and 2) these present
general conditions for participation.
2. Conditions for participation
The extent and conditions of participation as well as the services
to be provided by DI are laid out in the presentation material
sent, which includes a description of the practical implementation of the export promotion event. By signing the binding
registration form, participating companies give their approval of
the presentation material sent and of the prices, conditions and
provisions described therein.
DI is under obligation to supply the services described in the
presentation material. The participating companies are obligated to comply with the conditions for planning and implementing the export promotion event described in the material,
including meeting the deadlines given for sending in material
etc. to DI.
DI provision of services is conditional on not being delayed or
prevented by force majeure, including but not limited to war,
lockout, strikes, civil commotion, natural disasters or other circumstances beyond the control of DI. If an export promotion
event is cancelled due to any above mentioned circumstances,
the companies registered are under an obligation to pay their
share of costs already defrayed during preparation, insofar as
these costs cannot be covered by co-financing via export
promotion funds.
3. Financial conditions
By returning the binding registration form, the company commits itself to paying the cost indicated for participating in the
export promotion event. DI’s cost calculations (see material
sent) are based on a minimum number of participants. Should
this minimum number of participants not register, DI reserves
the right to cancel the event or send out revised material containing new prices, which will form the basis for the possible
implementation of the promotion with a reduced number of
participants. DI reserve the right to adjust the prices given to
follow changes in exchange rates, in the event of increases in
rental for the premises, and in the event of higher prices due to
common decisions about changing and expanding the event
relative to the original material sent out.
4. Invoicing
Unless otherwise agreed, invoices will be issued as follows:
1) 100% on account with binding registration, 2) final invoice
when the event is over and after all costs, such as any extra services agreed upon, are included. In the event that DI’s terms
of payment are not met, DI reserve the right to consider the
agreement repudiated in accordance with section 6.
5. Co-financing
In the event that co-financing can be expected via general
export promotion funds, participating companies are obligated
to provide the necessary documentation and other information
relevant to co-financing of the export promotion event.
6. Cancelling the agreement
Registering for an export promotion event is binding once the
registration form has been filled in and sent to DI. Thus DI has
a claim on the price agreed regardless of whether the company
subsequently cancels or reduces its participation.
7. Transport and insurance
Participating companies are requested to buy their own necessary insurance for their own employees and own goods, exhibition and information materials, covering damage incurred in
transit or during the event.
8. Venue
In the event of any dispute or controversy between the parties
regarding the interpretation or construction of the conditions
for participation or an alleged breach of contract by either party
to this agreement, such dispute or controversy shall be settled
by arbitration.
