Brand Positioning Campaign for Parkway Hospitals Singapore in Vietnam
Brand Challenges
Parkway Singapore has long been recognized as Asia’s leading private healthcare group, specializing in premium healthcare services and advanced medical treatments. To directly reach and provide optimal support to High-Net-Worth Individuals (HNWIs) in Vietnam, Parkway established its Representative Office in Ho Chi Minh City.
The challenge presented to Marcoms in 2022 was to effectively connect the Vietnamese elite with Singapore’s advanced healthcare system, assert the brand’s superior reputation, and build absolute trust through firsthand interactions with leading medical experts.
Scope of Work
Marcoms designed a 5 star integrated communication campaign focusing on two core pillars: organizing high-end expert events and securing extensive PR coverage across Vietnam's major mainstream media channels.
Premium Medical Seminar Organization
• Elite Venue: Selected Sofitel Saigon Plaza one of the most luxurious venues in central District 1 to host a series of specialized seminars tailored to the lifestyle of VIP guests.
• Expert Bridge: Marcoms coordinated and welcomed a delegation of leading doctors and medical experts flying directly from Parkway Singapore to Ho Chi Minh City to speak at the events.
• Exclusive Experience: Guests received updates on cutting-edge treatment technologies and engaged in exclusive, 1-on-1 private consultations with international experts at the event.
Comprehensive PR & Press Relations Campaign
• Press Conference & TV Coverage: Organized a structured press event that attracted national and city television networks. Co-produced in-depth news reports on VTV (Vietnam Television) and HTV (Ho Chi Minh City Television) to validate brand credibility.
• Mainstream Digital Press: Deployed in-depth articles on VnExpress and other major publications, highlighting Parkway’s medical technology, international-standard care, and the critical bridge role played by the Ho Chi Minh City Representative Office.
The Results

• Precise Target Audience Reach: The seminar series at Sofitel attracted hundreds of elite guests, entrepreneurs, and strategic partners in Ho Chi Minh City.
