The 2017’s entrance into the U.S. market, of Aier Eye Hospital, the largest private eye hospital group in China (which holds 10% of the entire China’s eye care market today), is a leading example of China’s major companies’ entrance into the U.S. market. Dr. Ming Wang, MD, PhD., the newly appointed CEO of Aier’s entire U.S. operation, Aier-USA, will talk about this exciting new and historical project, which will not only provide patients with more access to eye care, but also help reverse the U.S. job loss by creating more jobs here.

This is a story, of 15-year effort, tenacious and persistent effort, by one American (and an immigrant!), to help America – his adopted country!

We want to get jobs back to the American soil, with regard to a country like China, and that, can be done in one of two ways:

1.      Selling more American goods to China. We buy so much from China today (annual trade deficit with China is $366 billion, 2/3 of U.S.’ entire world trade deficit!), and as a consequence, we have lost so many American manufacturing jobs to China! However, selling more goods to China is challenging due to the difference in labor cost.

2.      Reverse the U.S. job loss by creating jobs here in America, with the investment and support of foreign countries such as China.

For the past 15 years, Dr. Wang has invested and supported Aier Eye Hospital in China, and has contributed in building it into now the world’s largest private eye hospital group, with 154 eye hospitals throughout China (holding 10% of China’s eye care market today).

It has taken Dr. Wang 15 years, but finally recently he has been able to convince his Aier partners in China, to come to U.S. and invest in America’s healthcare!

Just like Nissan, Aier-USA will be headquartered here in Nashville, and then it will build many centers throughout U.S. It will not only provide American patients with more access to eye care, but alsoreverse our job loss to China by creating jobs here in America!
