HLL being a total healthcare solution provider got an opportunity to showcase our services through HBII 2012.” “HBII 2012 has provided a unique platform to the solution providers as well as key decision makers for the hospital and medical fraternity. This would go a long way in raising the overall quality of infrastructure in healthcare, thus providing medical facilities to the patients at the best of quality and affordable costs.” “HBII is an appropriate exhibition to showcase new concepts in the hospital industry, i.e., we have the decision makers attending the exhibition.

All topics have been carefully chosen with correct speakers. I would say the star product of this event has been the awards, which has been well received by all. We need such organisations to bring the industry closer and bridge the gaps.” “We have achieved what we have aimed for – introduction of our products to the medical fraternity. We had a bonus, clicked two clients in the show itself.” “Knauf Middle East’s experience at HBII 2012 was outstanding, looking at the feedback and the quality of visitors.
