TBS GROUP: TBS Group to organise a one-day seminar in London on the global challenges to make healthcare assistance more efficient and equitable.

Trieste, 25th June 2015 - Improving the quality of healthcare services by streamlining expenditures in advanced countries. Assuring an evolution, also technological, of the social and healthcare assistance model in emerging countries. These are the two challenges that the planet will have to take on in the next few years by trying to fill - at least partially - the gap separating Europe, North America, and the so-called 'Western world', from the rest of the world. This challenge will be the subject of a one-day seminar promoted by TBS Group in collaboration with UKIBC, the UK India Business Council, which is going to take place on the 8th July at the King's Fund, in London, UK. Entrepreneurs, managers, physicians, and experts in the field coming from Asia, Africa, and Europe will hold a discussion on the guidelines to develop services, infrastructure and investment policies that may help making healthcare assistance more efficient.

'It will be a valuable opportunity for discussion in order to analyse as a whole the context in which we operate every day as an industrial specialised group - explains Nicola Pangher, General Manager of the Medical Devices & ICT systems and Foreign Markets BU of TBS Group

- We will listen to experiences and viewpoints that are very diverse. To us, that represents an

opportunity to better understand the demands of single countries and the respective issues, still

aiming to give practical answers.'

Speakers will include Mr. Jiefu Huang, former vice-Minister of Health of the People's Republic of China, Mr. Nick Bosanquet, lecturer in Health Policies at the Imperial College, and Mr. Rahul Khosla, Chairman of Max Healthcare, a company managing eleven large general hospitals in India, and Ms. Helen Bevan, Chief of Service Transformation of the NHS Institute for Innovation and Improvement.
