They were interviewed by many professional orthopedic media such as Orthopedics This Week and Orthowrold and negotiated with well-known medical channels such as Verve Medical and PIEMCA. The three-day exhibition attracted more than 20,000 visits from more than 30 countries’ orthopedic physician members and related workers from the United States, Canada, Spain, South Africa, etc., successfully highlighting Taiwan’s medical industry’s strength.
