The U.S.-China Health Summit is a non-profit organization based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, focused on advancing global health through the exchange of knowledge and experiences among healthcare leaders from the United States, China, and other nations. It advances this aim through high-level dialogues, leadership development programs, and applied research, with formal activities including an Annual Health Summit, Leadership Development Programs, a Think Tank and Research initiative, and the Young Health Innovators Forum. It was founded in 2011, initiated by Yuanli Liu of the Harvard China Initiative and Dr. Jing Ma of Harvard Medical School, and debuted at Harvard University in September of that year. Since then, participants have included policymakers, academic experts, business leaders, and other stakeholders in global health, reflecting its broad cross-sector approach. The summit has been hosted alternately by China and the United States and has received ongoing support from the National Health and Family Planning Commission of China and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. In 2015, the organization launched an Innovation program to better connect China’s healthcare market demands with innovation projects.
