Global Healthcare Investment Symposium Convenes in Botswana November 25, 2016
Presented by the Botswana Investment and Trade Centre (BITC) in conjunction with the Medical Tourism Association (MTA) and Medical Tourism Botswana, the Symposium will focus on the future of Medical Cities, Development of Regional Centers of Excellence as well as investment opportunities in Medical Tourism. The event will take the form of a VIP round table discussion comprised of dignitaries representing government, NGOs and regional organizations and will target and deliver concrete ideas and plans on how to quickly move forward on regional initiatives and partnerships.
The VIP round table discussion will be followed by visits to local hospitals and medical schools and concluded with B2B meetings with stakeholders in the industry.
" Africa is at the forefront of global healthcare development and investment, and Botswana - with its rapid advancements in medical development through its University Medical School - is at the pinnacle," said Renée- Marie Stephano , President of the Medical Tourism Association.
MTA President Stephano continued, "The influx of global investment should be premised upon disruption and transformation to meet the evolving needs of the health sector; Africa is poised to be what the Asian market was 25 years ago. A fresh perspective to the conversations during this Symposium stands to bring a new realization of partnerships, both public and private to achieve this evolution."
