Embracing our role as a bridge between East and West alongside nine renowned global academic medical centres.

It is with profound honour that the CUHK Medical Centre (CUHKMC) announces its induction into the newly launched SingHealth International Administrators Fellowship Network. Officially unveiled at the Singapore Healthcare Management (SHM) 2026 congress, this first-of-its-kind consortium unites a highly exclusive cohort of the world’s leading academic medical centres to shape the future of healthcare administration.

The Strategic Super Connector

In an increasingly complex global healthcare landscape, CUHKMC is uniquely positioned to serve as a super connector, bridging the gap between public and private healthcare locally while seamlessly connecting Eastern and Western administrative innovations globally.  Being invited to join this vanguard of healthcare pioneers is a testament to our forward-looking smart hospital model. By acting as a super connector, CUHKMC will channel world-class clinical operations and administrative strategies into Hong Kong, while exporting our own distinctive advancements in patient-centred design and transparent care to the global stage.

This innovative initiative, led by SingHealth and supported by an international network of peers, will help broaden perspectives, exchange best practices, and develop administrators who are ready to grow with adaptability and insight"
