Background

In April 2019, the Royal College of Physicians (London), the Sunway Healthcare Group and Cambridge Medical Seminars held their inaugural one-day seminar at the Sunway Medical Centre. The success of that meeting led to a two-day event at Sunway University in September 2019.

The plan was to continue these in-person seminars from 2020 onwards. The COVID-19 pandemic and international travel restrictions made that impossible — so the collaboration pivoted to a series of two-hour webinars, allowing not just the ASEAN community but participants from across the globe to take part.

The series concluded in 2023. The recordings remain freely available on the RCP Player and the Sunway Healthcare Group’s video archive — links below.
