Medic West Africa Exhibition and Conference has facilitated $30 million in business deals, and returns to bridge the gap by providing an unmatched platform for leaders to debate and shape the future of our region’s healthcare landscape.
Medic West Africa is the largest gathering of healthcare trade professionals in West Africa, and will be making its highly-anticipated return to Nigeria from 26 – 28 September 2023 in Lagos.
The event hosted 3,260 healthcare professionals from 84 countries in its 2022 edition.
The upcoming Medic West Africa conferences will include sessions presented by notable organisations, such as; the Healthcare Federation of Nigeria, the Association of Nigerian Private Medical Practitioners, and the Society for Quality in Health Care in Nigeria.
Organised by leading global exhibitions organiser Informa Markets, this year will mark the 10th anniversary of Medic West Africa and will also play host to the official launch of Medlab West Africa in partnership with the Medical Laboratory Science Council of Nigeria (MLSCN).
Medlab West Africa is the ideal medical laboratory event, offering manufacturers the exclusive opportunity to meet a diverse audience of buyers. From distributors to senior end-users, it will connect the entire West African healthcare and medical laboratory community to create unparalleled networking and knowledge-sharing opportunities.
Exhibition director, Medic West Africa, Tom Coleman, in his comments about the mission to transform the healthcare infrastructure in the region, said: “with its rapidly growing population, West and Central Africa has an ever-increasing demand for quality healthcare services.
“Whilst governments have made significant investments to improve healthcare infrastructure and expand access to medical facilities, Medic West Africa is instrumental in driving the progression of the healthcare industry by creating a conducive environment for businesses and stakeholders to connect, discourse, and explore the latest healthcare advancements in healthcare technology and solutions.”
The Medlab Congress at the 2023 Medic West Africa event will launch laboratory conference tracks focusing on laboratory management, clinical microbiology, immunology, and molecular diagnostics.
