Here is why advisers from national players to the global strategy firms attend:
Perhaps it is not surprising that many healthcare advisors send CXO teams. Now, book your place at HBI 2023.
After previous years people have come up to me afterwards and said, will you sell our company? Which is great and it made attendance incredibly worthwhile financially. It’s great to do is have a five minute conversation which will then lead to having a deeper conversation at a later point. It's that ability to talk to loads of people. You meet a whole bunch of companies you've never met before and the ability to take that away and revisit that in your own time.
Hedley Goldberg, Managing Director Rothschild & Co
What struck me was the availability of some of the brightest minds in health care. I get to meet a lot of people in a very fluid way which I could not do anywhere else.
Ronnie Van der Merwe, CEO, Mediclinic
A very interesting conference which is focussed on health care and you don’t find that elsewhere. You find a lot of operators and new ideas. The networking is all about human relationships and the magic of it is here.
Frederic Dib, Mozaic Asset Management, France, Europe
Very useful with a good mix of presentations and panel discussions. Excellent levels of networking with many people in senior positions to meet.
Frederik Gren, CEO, Ambea
Quality participants at CEO and CXO level from large companies with relevant private equity firms present. Well organized, engaging presentations and panel discussions.
Petri Heikila, Senior Manager, Nordic Healthcare Group
I get a better view of what is going on with digital health, artificial intelligence and how the providers and payors manage within the global trends. And also their cost-cutting initiatives. I’ve never had the chance to meet other CFOs and CEOs from other private hospitals. I am meeting many of them here. I'll be catching up with them, touching base with them afterwards. It's a great experience and a great networking opportunity.
Burcu Öztürk, CFO, MLP Care
Wonderful forward thinking visions offered by speakers, enhanced by great networking.
