Omanexpo organising major health exhibition in October

The event is to be held on October 19-21, 2009 at the Oman International Exhibition Centre in Seeb.

MedHealth & Wellness 2009 will showcase everything required in achieving and maintaining good health and well-being.

Supported by the Ministry of Health (MOH), the three-day international exhibition will feature medical tourism, health products & services, laboratory and medical equipment, pharmaceutical products, hospital and clinic infrastructure, sports & fitness, and alternative therapies.

"We envision MedHealth & Wellness 2009 as the definitive event in Oman for everything related to healthcare, medicine and fitness. It will be highly relevant to all medical professionals in the sultanate as well as to everyone looking for ways to effectively improve their health," said C.J. Paul, general manager of Omanexpo LLC, the leading exhibition management company in the sultanate.

Paul pointed out that, with the official support of the Ministry of Health, MedHealth & Wellness 2009 is expected to attract the participation of leading companies in Oman's vibrant health and medical industry.

In line with this, a briefing on the exhibition will be held today at the Crowne Plaza Muscat to inform all medical equipment suppliers in Oman about MedHealth & Wellness 2009.

"The strong presence of local companies in the exhibition will prominently showcase the quality of healthcare in the sultanate and also clearly reflect the continued development of Oman's vibrant health and medical industry," Paul stressed.

Apart from local companies, MedHealth & Wellness 2009 is also expected to attract many international exhibitors who want to take full advantage of the growing opportunities in the sultanate's medical sector.

In addition to the Ministry of Health, MedHealth & Wellness 2009 is also supported by Middle East Health magazine as the print media partner; Malaysia Healthcare.Com, Global Ayurveda and Placid Way as the online media partners; and Becker Travel as the official travel partner.
