SUMMARY:ABHI Mission to Texas
DESCRIPTION:Texas MedTech Mission to Create Demand for British-Developed Products \nBuilding on the success of previous missions\, the Association of British Healthcare Industries (ABHI) is running another ‘MedTech’ Trade Mission to Texas this Autumn. \nTaking place from 14th – 20th October 2017\, the mission is run in conjunction with the Department of International Trade (DIT) and the Academic Health Science Networks (AHSNs). \nIdeal for UK healthcare companies keen to develop and strengthen partnerships across the State\, the mission also aims to create demand for their products. Meetings will take place with hospital system leaders\, GPOs\, distributors\, clinical leaders and procurement teams across Austin\, Dallas and Houston. \nThere will also be introductions to a range of supporting organisations including academic\, investor communities and professional service providers. The mission will incorporate a series of group meetings\, business-matching events\, working groups and one-to-one meetings. \n“The mission’s objective is to help UK companies gain access to the Texan healthcare market and help support companies’ growth and return on investment in the USA\,” said ABHI International Director\, Paul Benton. \n“It targets senior leaders across many of the main hospital systems and offers unprecedented access to key decision makers and leaders. This is a great opportunity for UK MedTech companies and we are keen to talk to anyone who is looking to strengthen export links across the State.” \nTexas has been chosen for the mission as it is an economic powerhouse. It has the second largest GDP of any US State at 1.7 trillion dollars and were it a sovereign country\, would be ranked as the 12th largest economy in the world by GDP. \nFor more information or to book\, email Scarlett O’Sullivan.

SUMMARY:BioInfect Conference
DESCRIPTION:A major 1-day conference looking at the critical issues relating to the development of new anti-infectives and the endemic problem of resistance. \nAntimicrobial resistance occurs when microorganisms such as bacteria\, viruses\, fungi and parasites change in ways that render the medications used to cure the infections they cause ineffective. When the microorganisms become resistant to most antimicrobials they are often referred to as “superbugs”. This is a major concern because a resistant infection may kill\, can spread to others\, and imposes huge costs to individuals and society. \nAntimicrobial resistance threatens the effective prevention and treatment of an ever-increasing range of infections caused by bacteria\, parasites\, viruses and fungi. It is an increasingly serious threat to global public health that requires action across all government sectors and society. \nDetails of the conference programme will be available shortly. \nFor more information click here. \nUnited Life Sciences members get 10% discount
