In addition, high quality health care at a reasonable price will boost health tourism. Together with aging society, this would lead to higher demand in healthcare and insurtech service providers in the long term. We also expect an upside demand for B2B solutions on the enterprise side as COVID-19 caused more companies - not just industry leaders– to transform faster. Avoid B2C marketplaces, eCommerce and services as Asian Unicorns and even Global firms are competing heavily.
