Have you recently gone somewhere where you have never been? Have you talked to somebody who gave you a new perspective? Acquired new knowledge that changed your perception? I went to Odense, Denmark, recently to visit a greenhouse. As a hobby gardener and German quality aficionado I learned that quality standards in our Northern European neighbor country are even higher and stricter. No pesticides. No artificial anything. Chapeau!
The plants being cultivated in the beautiful countryside of Odense are cannabis plants. Since we have been researching the medical applications of cannabis for the past year, we were interested in visiting one of the major producers and were impressed. For us medical cannabis is one innovation among other drugs, devices and management approaches in healthcare. Therefore, we invited Spectrum Therapeutics to join our 8th Global Business Forum “Money and people – the currencies of healthcare” to be held on September 11-13, 2019 at the Columbia Global Center in Paris and are very excited that they will become a sponsor of our Annual Forum.
I am also proud that Mark Ware, the CMO of Canopy Growth and a Professor at McGill University, will be a keynote speaker as well as Michael Heise of Allianz SE Munich and Jean-Louis Schilansky of Medef Grand Paris. They will clearly give us a new perspective on business opportunities in global healthcare markets.
Please check out the agenda and let us know if you’d like to join as an individual or with colleagues from your organization. As healthcare paradigms are shifting new strategies and players are entering the market. Be prepared!
The Forum – now in its 8th year – has been conceived to help the world’s top healthcare executives seize the moment. Previous participants rave about the interactive, content-rich and personal experience: https://youtu.be/-fhcfbSPPmY.
Executives are invited personally and represent all stakeholder perspectives. The total number of participants is limited to ensure effective networking and matchmaking opportunities in a confidential setting. About 50% of participants join us from the United States, 40% from Europe and about 10% from Asia and the Middle East.
This is not a classical conference – our fans point out that it is a unique space for interaction of a range of different people from around the world who reconnect after the meeting and on an ongoing basis because the discussions they had at our forum lifted topics to a higher level. It is also the collegial environment and the ability to think freely that makes this forum different from the usual commercial ventures. At our forums we are “thinking together to reap results.” Please read about our past forums and contact us if you would like to join
and others as a partner of the forum. We offer the following sponsorship opportunities. We are looking forward to talking with you about how we can put a package together that meets your needs & exceeds your expectations. If a partnership is not feasible for you at the moment, come and join us as an individual to get a taste of our forum.
Space is limited and participation by invitation only. You may contact us directly at info@centerforhealthcaremanagement.org to request your personal registration. Individual registration including meals and materials is € 995. Attend the 8th Forum with your organization to identify new trends and incorporate them into future products and strategies necessary for success in a market of shifting US and EU priorities.
Please stay tuned for any updates @HCMatColumbia and @katharinajanus!
