The exhibition also featured expert lectures highlighting practical applications and clinical value in actual healthcare environments, alongside technology demonstrations. With 34 lectures attracting over 700 attendees, the event confirmed strong interest from healthcare institution representatives.

Daewoong Pharmaceutical views the Daewoong Alliance as a strategic initiative to cultivate digital healthcare as a new growth engine, expanding beyond its traditional pharmaceutical focus.
