Conference

The IMTEC conference are designed as an open and neutral platform to
promote and explore the potential of medical tourism in a given regions/countries.

The general conference focus is to network with all decision makers, providers, intermediaries and supporting functions of a medical traveler case. This relates to the inbound as well as to the outbound worldwide medical tourism. A special focus is on cross-border healthcare and the promotion of customer interests such as the right for patient mobility in Europe.

IMTEC 2013 will attract a growing number of professionals of this young industry from all parts of the world.

We value exchange of practical experience and pragmatic entrepreneurial approaches more than attempts of purely academic knowledge transfer. B2B meetings have a safe place in our event.

In our way of thinking, ’Entrepreneurial’ means customer orientation; the focus is the patient. We have one mission with our conferences: connecting people to health solutions!
