His Excellency Qadhi Al Murooshid, Director General of Dubai Health Authority, today officially opened the inaugural Hospital Build Middle East Exhibition and Congress, reinforcing the government’s support of the development of healthcare projects in the UAE and the Middle East.
New details on three new healthcare facilities in Dubai – Al Maktoum Hospital, Al Jalila Children’s Speciality Hospital and Nad Al Hamr primary healthcare clinic – were revealed to the VIP party during the official opening at the Dubai Health Authority stand.
The first edition of Hospital Build Middle East, supported by the Ministry of Health, Health Authority Abu Dhabi, Dubai Health Authority, Saudi Association for Health Informatics, and Oliva Health, was launched following the successful staging of Hospital Build Asia in Singapore in April, 2009.
There are currently more than 100 hospitals in the planning stage across the Middle East and North Africa, and while so many industries are feeling the bite of the credit crunch, healthcare projects remain relatively unaffected because of this region’s government support and a long term commitment to healthcare infrastructure growth.
Seven comprehensive conferences run alongside the exhibition at Hospital Build Middle East Congress, including the well established Hospital Design and Upgrade. The HDU conference, which has until now taken place during Arab Health, addresses sustainable healthcare solutions through better design. Twenty five powerful sessions, over three days, will highlight the latest thinking in clinical design.
Internationally recognised industry speakers, such as Dr Moham Chellappa, President of Global Ventures at Johns Hopkins Medicine-International in the USA and Dr Philipp Vetter, Head of Strategy at the Health Authority Abu Dhabi, will address delegates at the Congress.
The event is open from 14 - 16 June 2009, Sheikh Maktoum Hall,
Dubai International Exhibition Centre from 10.00 - 18.00 hours.
If you believe that the healthcare market in certain parts of the world will buck the general global downturn, then the success of Hospital Build Asia Exhibition & Congress (1-3 April, Singapore) certain provided clear proof.
Following the success of the launch of the Hospital Build brand, the event in the Middle East will host an extensive Exhibition as well as a multi-track Congress and the inaugural Hospital Build Awards. The Congress features the following conferences:
