<li>The National Health Commission released "14th Five-Year Plan for the Configuration of Large Medical Equipment", which should drive the upgrading of the whole industry chain and accelerate the import substitution.</li>
<li>The gap between Chinese and Western hospitals can lead to many differences in the logic of future commercialization, such as surgical robots and other high-priced innovative medical devices in China.</li>
<li>The efficacy/safety standards of GLP-1 drugs have been raised sufficiently high. If latecomers’ products fail to be better than Semaglutide/Tirzepatide/Orforglipron, it’s difficult to gain market share through "fast-follow strategy".</li>
