BenQ and Qisda’s medical fleet has identified the post-pandemic global trend and, leveraging the group’s technological advantages combined with medical expertise, aims to realize applications such as preventive medicine and remote interactions (such as telemedicine, home diagnostics, and distance learning). Among these, the smart operating room utilizes augmented reality images, enabling physicians to conduct distance teaching even across thousands of miles. Additionally, they have developed a smart pharmacy health lifestyle platform based on the concept of the metaverse, allowing offline physical stores to be virtualized through VR technology. Consumers can browse the pharmacy online and consult with pharmacists via instant video. Furthermore, facing the trends of declining birth rates and aging populations, they continue to focus on realizing the goal of active lifestyle aesthetics, offering high-quality and fashionable goods and services that align with the concepts of precision medicine and contactless smart personalized care. In the post-pandemic era, they aim to coexist with the epidemic’s new normal by providing consumers with high-quality personalized protective products and services, creating a safer, more reassuring, friendly, and high-quality new health epidemic prevention lifestyle.
According to BMI Research’s study, the global medical equipment market reached $427.3 billion in 2020, experiencing a 5.9% growth compared to 2019, driven by epidemic prevention and healthcare demands, maintaining a trend of slight growth. It is estimated to further grow to $491.4 billion by 2023, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 4.8% from 2020 to 2023. As observed by the Industrial Economics and Knowledge Center (IEK) of the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) in 2021, the Taiwanese market witnessed a return of deferred medical demands from 2020 and rapid growth in epidemic prevention and healthcare-related products. It is estimated that the output value of Taiwan’s medical equipment industry in 2021 reached NT$134 billion, representing a 6.0% growth compared to the same period last year.
Harry stated: “In response to lifestyle changes in the post-pandemic era, intelligent healthcare breaking spatial limitations and encompassing personalized epidemic prevention, preventive medicine, and precision health will become major trends in the medical field. The international-level medical fleet formed by the BenQ and Qisda Group will fully embark on these global trends, focusing on people-oriented development of professional and trustworthy medical products and services. We are committed to enhancing the visibility of Taiwan’s overall medical equipment industry and forming alliances with Taiwan’s hidden champions to contribute to the industry and help Taiwan’s medical industry build a ‘Guardian Mountain’!”
