UK-China delegation visit SSG’s Design & Innovation Centre

On 14th November 2019 we were delighted to welcome delegates from the 2019 UK-China Green Hospital Summit to our Design & Innovation Centre at our headquarters near Wolverhampton.

Co-organised by The Building Centre, MIC and China Design Centre, and supported by Healthcare UK, this year’s summit was held in London from 11th – 17th November and brought together influential Chinese hospital and state-owned company leaders, government officials and healthcare architects for an interactive discussion with UK healthcare specialists about smart and sustainable hospital design and development.

Subjects explored included: future trends in UK and Chinese hospitals; smart hospital systems and their design and construction; the use of green materials and digital innovation in health management.

We were thrilled that our Design & Innovation Centre was chosen as a venue for a site visit during the summit. 14 of the summit’s Chinese delegates joined our managing director, product manager and head of sales who, through an interpreter, outlined the leading-edge technology being incorporated into our nurse call, patient safety and healthcare communication solutions.

The aim of the UK-China Summit, the third since 2015, was to strengthen the academic and practical exchanges of co-operation between the two countries. Accordingly, British healthcare experts and architects connected with Chinese hospital leaders in order to understand the trends of the smart hospital development – helping to facilitate collaborative opportunities between the UK and China within the healthcare industry.

We welcome healthcare specialists, clinical teams, design groups, constructors and other interested parties to our Design & Innovation Centre. To find out more or to arrange a visit, email: [email protected]
