Thailand has named 2026 its healthcare "Golden Year," pivoting wellness real estate toward medical-grade infrastructure to counter a rapidly aging population. While mega-projects like the THB25 billion HERCULES development draw massive investment, sustainable growth depends on overcoming structural challenges, including acute medical workforce shortages, heavy import reliance, and geopolitical disruptions affecting international medical tourism.

M&G Real Estate has partnered with Stockland to expand Australia's land lease community sector, reflecting growing institutional interest in senior living. As aging populations reshape housing demand, the company sees Australia as APAC's leading investment market while identifying Japan and South Korea as the region's next major opportunities for long-term institutional capital.

SOMPO Holdings has structured its operations into two strategic pillars: SOMPO P&C and SOMPO Wellbeing. The Wellbeing segment builds a data-driven ecosystem tackling health, senior care, and financial concerns. Through its Platform Business, technological innovations, and international alliances, SOMPO is exporting its operational expertise to scale its high-touch care model globally.
