Development history of Shenzhen 

Shenzhen is located next to Hong Kong, one of the key financial and business centers of the world.  The city has a short history - Shenzhen wasn’t technically a city until 1979. Now, it is home to the largest economy in China’s Greater Bay Area, surpassing its neighbor Hong Kong. Shenzhen is also called China’s Silicon Valley, since many China’s tech-giants are headquartered there. As a rising financial center, Shenzhen also hosts one of the two Stock Exchanges in Mainland China. The headquarter of China’s leading insurance company Ping An Insurance is in Shenzhen as well.

Immigration to Shenzhen 

Enticed by its fast-developing economy, people from across the whole country have relocated to Shenzhen to take their chances at new job and life opportunities. In its 40-year development, countless migrant workers have contributed to this city’s construction projects and labor-intensive manufacturing production. Many young graduates have found it easier to find a job in Shenzhen compared to other first-tier cities. Promotion opportunities have attracted top talent in many sectors to come to this city. Accordingly, with the rise of population, the cost of housing in Shenzhen has also seen a drastic increase.

As of 2023, the bulk of the Chinese population was aged between 25 and 59 years, amounting to around half of the population. A breakdown of the population by broad age groups reveals that around 61.3 percent of the total population was in working age between 16 and 59 years in 2023. Age cohorts below 25 years were considerably smaller, although there was a slight growth trend in recent years. Population development in China Population development in China over the past decades has been strongly influenced by political and economic factors. After a time of high fertility rates during the Maoist regime, China introduced birth-control measures in the 1970s, including the so-called one-child policy. The fertility rate dropped accordingly from around six children per woman in the 1960s to below two at the end of the 20th century. At the same time, life expectancy increased consistently. In the face of a rapidly aging society, the government gradually lifted the one-child policy after 2012, finally arriving at a three-child policy in 2021. However, like in most other developed countries nowadays, people in China are reluctant to have more than one or two children due to high costs of living and education, as well as changed social norms and private values. China’s top-heavy age pyramid The above-mentioned developments are clearly reflected in the Chinese age pyramid. The age cohorts between 30 and 39 years are the last two larger age cohorts. The cohorts between 15 and 24, which now enter childbearing age, are decisively smaller, which will have a negative effect on the number of births in the coming decade. When looking at a gender distribution of the population pyramid, a considerable gender gap among the younger age cohorts becomes visible, leaving even less room for growth in birth figures.

The Computed Tomography (CT) market in China is experiencing robust growth, driven by factors such as increasing prevalence of chronic diseases necessitating advanced diagnostic tools, rising healthcare expenditure, and government initiatives promoting healthcare infrastructure development. The market, valued at approximately $1.34 billion in 2025, is projected to exhibit a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 5.98% from 2025 to 2033. This growth is fueled by technological advancements leading to higher-resolution imaging, faster scan times, and reduced radiation exposure, enhancing diagnostic accuracy and patient comfort. The segmentation reveals a significant demand across various applications, with Oncology, Neurology, and Cardiovascular segments leading the way due to the high incidence of related diseases in China's aging population. Hospitals and diagnostic centers constitute the major end-users, reflecting the centralized nature of healthcare delivery in the country. Competitive landscape is characterized by a mix of international players like GE Healthcare, Siemens Healthineers, and Philips, alongside domestic companies such as Neusoft Medical Systems and Shenzhen Anke High-tech, vying for market share. The market is poised for continued expansion, propelled by increased adoption of multi-slice CT scanners, expanding medical tourism, and government investments in upgrading medical facilities across both urban and rural areas. The regional distribution within China itself will likely show significant variance, with larger metropolitan areas exhibiting higher adoption rates compared to less developed regions. However, government initiatives aimed at improving healthcare access across the country are expected to bridge this gap gradually. While restraints such as high equipment costs and the need for skilled professionals might pose challenges, the overall growth trajectory remains positive, particularly given the ongoing focus on preventative healthcare and early disease detection. Future growth will likely be influenced by the increasing affordability of CT scans, advancements in AI-powered image analysis, and the government's ongoing efforts to improve healthcare accessibility across the diverse regions of China. Further specialization within the CT market, like the development of specialized scanners for specific applications (e.g., cardiac CT), will also contribute to market expansion. Recent developments include: December 2023: GE Healthcare officially launched its first domestically produced ultra-high-end CT, the RevolutionApexTMExpert, based on the Quantum platform. The system was developed at its Beijing Imaging Equipment Manufacturing Base in Beijing E-Town., March 2023: Elekta launched a cooperative venture with China National Pharmaceutical Group Co. Ltd (Sinopharm) to expand the use of radiation therapy in so-called lower-tier cities, where around 70% of the population lives.. Key drivers for this market are: Increasing Geriatric Population and Chronic Disease Burden, Technological Advancements in Computed Tomography. Potential restraints include: Increasing Geriatric Population and Chronic Disease Burden, Technological Advancements in Computed Tomography. Notable trends are: Hospitals are Expected to Hold a Significant Share Over the Forecast Period.
