Coventry University is seeking to forge new collaborations with health organisations in Singapore following a visit by the university’s Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Health and Life Sciences.
Professor Ann-Marie Cannaby travelled to Singapore in January, visiting the National Health Innovation Centre and other health facilities.
The highlight of the Singapore visit was a roundtable discussion, organised by the Singapore Hub and moderated by Professor Cannaby, which brought together senior healthcare leaders and experts from the local health and care community.
The roundtable discussed the unique nature of leadership in the health and care sector and facilitated a robust exchange of ideas and best practices.
Coventry University Group is committed to being at the forefront of global health education and research. Singapore's health and care system has garnered international acclaim for its efficiency and innovation, and we look forward to meaningful and continued participation with our Singaporean collaborators and stakeholders.

Professor Cannaby’s visit to Singapore is a testament to the Group’s commitment in strengthening both our health and care capabilities and our international presence.
Singapore is known for its world-leading capabilities in health and care, and we believe that there are significant opportunities for collaboration between Singaporean and Coventry stakeholders here.
