LONDON, March 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Frost & Sullivan will host its prestigious 2006 Excellence in Healthcare Awards Banquet on Monday 13th March, 2006 at the Hilton London Heathrow Airport Hotel.
At the banquet, Frost & Sullivan will honour companies for their business achievements in a variety of regional and global healthcare markets. The companies commended as Award winners are those with the diligence, perseverance as well as dedication required to develop a successful business plan and excel in the increasingly competitive global marketplace.
Mr. Gary Jeffrey, European Director of Operations, Frost & Sullivan and Mr. Sumit Sharma, Practice Director, Healthcare (EMEA), Frost & Sullivan will welcome banquet attendees. The keynote speeches, to be delivered by Mr. Martin Bryant and Dr. Amarpreet Dhiman of the EMEA Healthcare Research Team at Frost & Sullivan, will focus on industry-leading trends in the healthcare sector. Mr. Bryant will look at ‘The Medical Imaging Industry: Moving Towards a Solutions Based Approach’ while Dr. Dhiman will examine ‘Outsourcing - The Changing Face for Pharma and Biotech’.
Even as workflow integration and the use of information technology in the imaging services delivery process changes the way imaging systems are being purchased or acquired, Mr. Bryant will analyse critical trends that are indicating a shift towards a solutions based approach.
Dr. Dhiman will investigate the ways in which pharmaceutical and biotechnological companies are increasingly turning to outsourcing business processes as a way to reduce cost pressures, gain access to innovative new ideas, maximise the use of existing resources, and streamline their cost-benefit ratios.
