How has an event like MEDICALL served the growth of the healthcare industry in the country?
MEDICALL was started with the idea of promoting entrepreneurship amongst the medical fraternity. The first MEDICALL expo was held in 2005 with the idea of bringing all the stakeholders of hospital industry under one roof. MEDICALL provides an opportunity for Indian and international hospital needs companies to showcase their products and services. BrainStorm MEDICALL – seminars focusing on hospital management and MEDICALL Healthcare Innovation Awards attract the very best hospitals and medical professionals from all over India. Hospital owners have been depending on speciality conferences to source their equipment. But these conferences cannot satisfy the entire needs of these hospitals; hence we have decided to organise a show which will serve as a hospital needs supermarket. With this vision, MEDICALL was started. So far many successful partnerships have been forged between manufacturers and distributors at MEDICALL events.
How is MEDICALL 2013 different from its predecessors?
This year we are emphasising on the presence of innovative healthcare solutions and services. BrainStorm MEDICALL will have eight parallel conferences focusing on interesting healthcare management topics. The Innovation awards has additional categories encouraging more innovation from different healthcare segments.
What are the segments to look out for in this year’s MEDICALL?
Apart from the routine medical equipment, MEDICALL will be focusing on modular OTs, CSSD, IT, fabrics and textiles. We will also be focusing on bringing the best and latest from across the globe.
What kind of participation are you expecting at this year’s event?
Last year, the show had more than 450 national and international exhibitors and 9500 visitors. This year, the show will have over 500 exhibitors, and we are expecting more than 10500 professional visitors. MEDICALL 2013 is all set to be the biggest congregation of hospital owners in India.
How will the delegates benefit from the event this year?
MEDICALL provides a cost effective and accessible opportunity for healthcare entrepreneurs, management professionals and physicians of India. With wider options of medical equipment and technologies, delegates can exercise the right choice in procurement. The BrainStorm MEDICALL – knowledge sharing sessions will help the delegates to take stock of the growth, discuss about the problems they face and identify opportunities for future.
