What to do during MedTech World Singapore 2025 week 

Singapore in October is a city at full throttle. On October 1, global innovators and industry leaders will come together for MedTech World Singapore 2025 in collaboration with KPMG, and just days later, the streets will roar to life with the Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix. Think cutting-edge ideas by day and adrenaline-charged nights under the city lights. 

For attendees flying in, it’s the perfect chance to blend business with pleasure—network with global leaders, then step straight into one of the world’s most electrifying sporting and lifestyle spectacles. Here’s how to make the most of your week in Singapore. 

Dive into the F1 excitement 

While MedTech discussions take center stage during the day, the Singapore Grand Prix brings the city to life with lights, speed, and celebration. From October 3 to 5, expect: 

• Night races under the city lights, with Marina Bay transforming into a neon spectacle.  

• Associated fringe events—concerts, fan zones, entertainment activations—scattered around the city. 

• Photo-worthy scenes: celebrity appearances, themed light shows, food stalls, street performances. Great for relaxing after the conference sessions. 

Plan to keep one evening free (or two) to soak up the Grand Prix vibe—dress casual, bring your energy, and maybe a light jacket depending on where you’ll be standing.

Mix business with leisure in the city 

Evenings are perfect to explore what Singapore has to offer: 

Gardens & green spaces 

• Gardens by the Bay — iconic domes, the Supertree Grove, and that magical evening light show. 

• Singapore Botanic Gardens — a UNESCO site; ideal for early morning walks or calming reprieves mid-conference.

Culinary adventures 

Singapore is a melting pot of flavours: 

• Hawker centres like Maxwell Food Centre or Lau Pa Sat for trusty, satisfying local food—Hainanese chicken rice, laksa, chilli crab. 

• Upscale dining – if you want, there are rooftop bars and restaurants with views of the skyline and harbour. Great for client dinners or simply treating yourself. 

Shopping & culture 

• Orchard Road for global brand shopping 

• Chinatown, Little India, Kampong Glam for local crafts, textiles, and culturally rich streetscapes 

• Museums and galleries (e.g., National Gallery Singapore) for a dose of art and history 

Health & wellness amid the hustle 

Staying sharp during your stay in Singapore means recovery matters: 

• Book a spa session or hotel wellness centre massage to soothe any travel- or walking-induced fatigue. 

• Join a yoga or stretching class—many hotels or boutique studios offer drop-in classes. 

• Water, sun protection, comfy shoes—Singapore’s humid; plan accordingly. 

Evening entertainment & nightlife 

After the day’s seminars and F1 glam, the nights in Singapore are young: 

• Rooftop bars in Marina Bay or the CBD for skyline views + cocktails 

• Live music venues or jazz bars around Clarke Quay or Boat Quay 

• Night markets or late-night food hunts—try local desserts like ice kachang or pandan cake

Smart tips for a smoother visit 

• Transport: MRT, taxis and ride-sharing work well. Around race time, there may be road closures, so allow extra time. 

• Tickets & Reservations: For Grand Prix events, concerts, or special restaurants, book ahead. These fill up fast. 

• Dress code: Conference smart-casual during the day; something more relaxed or fashion-forward for evenings or F1 events. 

• Weather: Expect tropical: warm, humid, possible downpours. An umbrella or light raincoat can be lifesavers.
