The Summit's speakers -- all major players in the healthcare media industry -- will discuss and assess critical issues and investment opportunities across the entire healthcare media industry. In addition to the speakers, the conference will also provide the opportunity for a select group of companies to participate in a panel on innovative healthcare media companies.
The Summit's attendees will include strategics -- senior executives at healthcare and B2B companies -- and financials -- key private equity partners who are active in the healthcare media space or evaluating it for future activity. As with previous DeSilva + Phillips healthcare media events, the Summit will afford the industry's leadership a rare opportunity to gather in one place, share strategies and plan for future growth in this rapidly evolving sector. Attendance is by invitation only.
