Positioned within the Healthcare Transformation sector, the Zone features four demonstration rooms, including a labor, delivery, and neonatal room, giving visitors a step-by-step overview of the latest technologies utilized during birth, including electronic fetal monitoring, ultrasonography, blood pressure screening, and maternal/fetal pulse oximetry. In addition, an operating room, intensive care unit, and emergency room are also on show, providing a unique platform for equipment manufacturers, e-health solution providers, cybersecurity experts, AI specialists, and digital health disruptors to showcase their solutions and products.
