Abu Dhabi arrives medical tourism conference with high quality participants

WEST PALM BEACH, Florida, October, 2019 – / PRNewswire / – Specially invited buyers, expert speakers, health ministers and hundreds of other health sector executives will travel to Abu Dhabi next month as delegates to the 12th World Congress of Medical Tourism and Global Medical Care (WMTC). The Congress, which hopes to address many of the challenges around medical tourism, will be held from October 15 to 17.

This year’s WMTC meeting is held in a new headquarters, where the meeting of innovators and disruptors in the fastest growing health sector in the world will take place. Leaders from every corner of the industry will meet in beautiful Abu Dhabi, where specially invited buyers will take a private tour of the flourishing medical sector of the Emirate on October 15. On the first day there will also be a Ministerial Summit on medical tourism and population health management, as well as a full-time workshop for connoisseurs of the sector who wish to become a Certified Medical Tourism Professional.

Speakers will be presented in the last two days of the Congress and there will be three educational sessions. A large list of more than 100 speakers will join the Congress in Abu Dhabi to share stories and perspectives that reveal industry secrets, inadvertent challenges and the future of the industry.

Therefore, the three-day event is an incredible opportunity to acquire new business contacts and connect with some of the best actors in the global health sector.

The Medical Tourism Association (MTA), which has been organizing the WMTC event for 12 years, believes that the October event will be the most exclusive and unmatched so far.

“One of our main goals for this year’s Congress is to bring together an exclusive group of industry leaders who are rarely, or never, together in the same place,” said Jonathan Edelheit, Chairman of the Board and Co-Founder of the Association of Medical Tourism and WMTC Abu Dhabi. “By putting insurance providers, government officials, hospital executives and industry facilitators together in the same room at the same time, we are creating an invaluable climate of insider secrets and international collaboration.”

Edelheit is especially excited about the Buyers Program and the variety of speakers.

“With more than 100 speakers and 100 guest buyers especially from the health sector that we bring from all over the world, this will be an event like no other, never seen in the industry,” Edelheit said.

In previous years, the MTA summoned some of the most recognized experts from around the world to share how they were revolutionizing the health care sector, population health management and the management and prevention of chronic diseases and disorders. This year’s public will include health ministers, hospitals, insurance companies and industry leaders from more than 90 countries. Representatives of Johns Hopkins, Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi, Human Longevity Inc, Bupa Arabia, Axa and dozens of other organizations will meet to share their innovative strategies in a globalized 21st century market.

The variety of speakers at the Congress is already impressive, but travelers who purchase the Networking Pass will have additional access to other guests. An exclusive web / mobile application allows those who have a pass to see the full list of attendees, including speakers and buyers, to be able to arrange meetings in advance directly in the Congress Networking Room. Professionals who are thinking about the future will be able to make new contacts, create new associations and expand their companies.

The MTA believes that a Networking Pass (or a Premium Pass) is the best way to make the most of the extensive list of buyers and speakers.

“We believe that the WMTC event receives some of the most brilliant medical innovators in the world, but we want this event to be a great opportunity to generate contacts for companies and governments as well,” Edelheit said. “Obtaining a Network Pass and having access to our VIP Lounges and the Networking Application is the fastest and most effective way to achieve it.”
