In the fields of medicine, scientific research, manufacturing, etc., professional-grade disposable consumables often play a pivotal role. These seemingly simple but crucial products not only bear the heavy responsibility of ensuring safety and improving efficiency, but also require the deep integration of cutting-edge technological innovation and practical applications, which also makes the research and development of high-end disposable consumables a complex and sophisticated system engineering. However, technological innovation does not exist in isolation. It must be rooted in actual needs and requires strong alliances between powerful companies. Now, this practice has another typical example of cooperation. Recently, Bluesail Medical and Wanhua Chemical signed a strategic cooperation agreement at Wanhua Chemical’s Cishan headquarters and held a joint innovation laboratory unveiling ceremony. The content of this cooperation is mainly for both parties to give full play to their strengths and carry out deep integration, namely “Wanhua Chemical’s polyurethane industry chain advantages and ...

Going overseas is not only a dream, but also a big adventure that Hengrui Medicine has to take. Even under the new measurement standards, there is such a voice that the success of going overseas will be the key to determining whether Hengrui Medicine can maintain its “number one” status. Indeed, Hengrui Medicine, which has accelerated its innovation transformation, has come to a crossroads. First, relying on the domestic market in the past, Hengrui Medicine may not be in a hurry to layout overseas markets. However, with the involution of domestic innovative drugs and pharmaceutical companies going overseas to find incremental growth, internationalization has also been raised to a more important level. Although Hengrui Medicine proposed the direction of “internationalization” as early as in its 2020 annual report, its internationalization has not been smooth in the past few years. Secondly, carrelizumab has already fallen behind, and the internationalization of PD-1 ...
This year, “going overseas” is still a hot keyword in the medical device industry. Especially at present, the domestic medical device market has entered a plateau period, and local “roll kings” are increasingly aware of the importance of going overseas. A positive signal is that the recognition of Chinese medical devices in overseas markets is constantly rising. At the just-concluded CMEF Autumn Exhibition, participants could clearly feel that international friends have become more enthusiastic about the Chinese medical device exhibition. According to the organizer, the number of pre-registrations for international visitors at this year’s exhibition exceeded twice that of the same period last year. On the background walls of the booths of some local exhibitors, large-scale introductions to companies and products and services are printed in English, which can be said to have spared no effort in attracting overseas attention. The cost advantages of Chinese medical devices and the product ...
