The declining birth rate in Japan is advancing the average age of the population faster than that of any other developed country, with the result that by 2015, one quarter of Japan's population will be aged 65 and over. This trend, and the population's growing awareness of health issues, is prompting demand for health care-related products and services to surge, creating excellent business opportunities for foreign firms in the pharmaceuticals, and medical equipnt and services fields.
By assembling a team possessing specialist healthcare knowledge and vast experience, DentsuPR is helping foreign clients access Japan's medical and home healthcare system markets, as well as industries related to health, including the medical products and medical devices sectors, food preparation, ination technology, life and casualty insurance, and exercise/sport sectors.
Collaboration with opinion leaders and professional groups DentsuPR organizes study groups of opinion leaders such as researchers, doctors, scholars, and media representatives, and uses them as information sources for each PR strategy. We also collaborate with medical- and health-related groups including the Japan Medical Association, Japan Pharmaceutical Association, and the Japan Dietetic Association to ensure that DentsuPR provides programs that support the spreading of knowledge and understanding about products and services related to health.
