The 2008 event was a major success. The standing room only crowd came to hear perspectives from leaders in the market, network, make contacts and build business relationships.

Building on the success of the 2008 Summit, Infocast will again produce the premier networking event for healthcare market players with Presenting Sponsor, Waller Lansden, recognized as one of the nation’s top healthcare law firms by Modern Healthcare.

Some of the most influential names in healthcare joined us in 2008 for a high level discussion of the opportunities and challenges in today’s healthcare market, and can be expected again in 2009. The Summit provides an outstanding venue to learn about topical issues that can make or break a healthcare deal.

The Healthcare Deal Making Summit offers you the opportunity to interact with the C-Suite of decision makers – individuals directly involved in mergers, acquisitions and joint ventures from across the healthcare spectrum. Attendees will benefit by building relationships and obtaining knowledge that will position them for bottom-line success.
