Until recently, the healthcare industry has been slow to adopt information technology. But with an aging Baby Boomer population, and healthcare spending expected to reach $2.6 trillion by 2010, the industry can no longer afford to lag behind. The trend has reversed in recent years, and there now exists a myriad of growth and investment opportunities in the healthcare IT industry.
The 2009 Health Technology Investment Forum, which takes place in San Francisco on March 24, will bring together investors, executives, and entrepreneurs from the finance and healthcare industries to discover the latest trends in health IT. Attendees will have the opportunity to meet with and hear from from high-growth companies who are revolutionizing healthcare. Investors will gain unparalleled insight into financing trends and discover who tomorrow’s industry players will be. This is the first forum convened to address the needs of companies and investors in this sector.
OneMedPlace will be covering the conference and profiling innovative companies, so stay tuned for a summary report.
