2. Significant Opportunities for collaboration in Life Sciences & Health Care
China’s healthcare market is enormous and provides huge opportunities for collaboration between the two countries.
A recent joint report from the Chinese Government, the World Bank and the World Health Organisation recommended that China moves from its current model of hospital-centric healthcare delivery to one that focusses on health outcomes from care for the patient, delivered in the community, providing a cost effective and high quality service.
Both the UK and China face significant health and care challenges. The UK’s experience & capabilities in primary and community care can help China build a better system to address this important issue.

Case Study - CBBC has helped a wide range of UK companies access the potential of the fastest growing market in the world
Seaband - Understanding Market Entry Requirements
“Overall, it was a very professional service, which helped us to understand the Chinese pharmacy market, and has provided us with a great starting point to move forwards in a country that could, in time, potentially dwarf some of our most successful existing markets. Our next steps regarding China are to work on the IP and medical device registration. I am certain we will be using CBBC's services again in the future.”
Paul Joels, Marketing Manager
Background: Sea-Band is the UK market leader for an anti-nausea product. After success exporting elsewhere, they saw China’s growth potential
Results: commissioned a Business Support Services (BSS) project with CBBC to understand local over-the-counter regulations, competition and methods for distribution
CBBC used its experience and network in the Chinese healthcare sector to provide Sea-Band with the most up-to-date information on pricing, regulations and IPR
Through the extensive network offered by CBBC, Sea-Band arranged meetings and began to engage with two prominent medical device registration companies in Beijing
