The platform is actually a forum that acts as a catalyst for discussion of issues related to healthcare sector in order to finding global solutions. It brings together companies, consultants and organisations connecting healthcare providers, regulatory agencies, industry, research institutions and faculties of education to explore and make use of synergies. The platform is being supported by the embassy of Sweden in India, the consulate general of Sweden in Mumbai and has leading Swedish healthcare companies like Bactiguard, Hemocue and Molnlycke Health Care on board.

‘India has its set of advantages. There is a lot to learn from India and I hope we will continue to exchange good practices, knowledge and technology,’ he added. India and Sweden signed a memorandum of understanding in healthcare in 2009. Sandberg said the platform launched Tuesday will further strengthen the MoU. The platform aims to be a key interface between the various stakeholders in the Swedish and Indian healthcare system.

It will provide exceptional opportunities in the areas of research, policy, innovations and implementing best practices by both the countries. Anna Liberg, trade commissioner of Sweden to India said: ‘Sweden’s history and results of inclusive care fit very well with India’s ambition of care for the many. Sweden can further contribute to India with its innovative, preventive and continuous improvement focused healthcare system.’
