Asia’s healthcare and life sciences growth is becoming easier to see in real-world care.
Hospital groups are expanding capacity, specialty treatment is growing in areas such as cardiology, oncology, neurology and gastroenterology and more companies are building the tests, tools and services that support diagnosis and treatment.
EY’s Q2FY26 report detailed plans for major hospital expansion in India, including about 4,200 beds over five years for the Aster DM Healthcare-Quality Care India platform and about 2,000 beds over five years for Narayana Hrudayalaya. The same report also pointed to stronger revenue coming from more specialized care, with Quality Care India’s CONGO specialties accounting for about 60% of total revenue.
Some of Asia’s faster growing healthcare markets also sit on a relatively strong care infrastructure. In South Korea, for example, the entire population is covered for a core set of health services, and the country has 12.6 hospital beds per 1,000 people and 87 CT, MRI and PET units per million people, both above OECD averages. The country appears prominently in segments such as diagnostics, medtech and digital health.
Asia’s healthcare and life sciences growth is not coming from a single model or one type of company. This breadth of innovation has garnered companies across Asia a place in the Financial Times’ and Statista’s 2026 High-Growth Asia-Pacific Companies ranking, which includes companies working in genomics, AI software, hospital networks, fertility care, staffing and commercialization support, and not just drug development.
