Telemedicine goes global with ATA event in China

The reaches of telemedicine technology knows no boundaries as demonstrated by the American Telemedicine Association’s (ATA) recent announcement that it will co-host the first-ever telemedicine technology exhibition at the Binhai International Convention and Exhibition Center in Tianjin, China, outside of Beijing, Oct. 28-30, 2014. ATA’s co-hosts for the event are the Municipal Government of Tianjin Binhai New Area and the Tianjin Public Health Bureau and Medical Association. This inaugural event is expected to attract more than 5,000 attendees and hundreds of exhibitors to the Tianjin area, China’s designated base for advanced reform and innovation.

“This meeting is a significant step to expand the market for all forms of telemedicine and promote its use in healthcare systems throughout the world,” said Jonathan Linkous, Chief Executive Officer of ATA.  “Telemedicine has been proven to lower costs, improve accessibility and enhance quality of healthcare not only in the US, but internationally.” “We’re honored to be hosting an event of this scale and importance – the first of its kind – and share mutually beneficial practices to advance life-saving healthcare delivery technology” said Linkous.

“I am very about this unique, first-time event,” says Trinity Video Communications CEO Barry Sawayer. “Every person, no matter their location in the world, should have access to and benefit from this technology. It’s an exciting time to be involved with telemedicine. The future is bright.”
