SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 7, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- After a successful round of MarketConnect Live at Health 2.0's 11th Annual Conference, Health 2.0 is announcing another round of MarketConnect Live, a live meeting platform designed to accelerate the health tech buying and selling process at HIMSS18 in Las Vegas. In 2018, Health 2.0 is enhancing the experience by rolling out a new digital platform that allows healthcare organizations to quickly filter through relevant tech companies who might be a strategic fit for their own organizations.
This invitation-only event connects market-ready tech companies with prospective healthcare clients looking to evaluate and implement vetted technologies and integrate these solutions into their organizations. Hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, and payors will meet with hand-picked digital health companies that address their prioritized initiatives. The 2017 program matched 25 top healthcare organizations with 18 tech companies that fit their needs, through over 70 curated sales meetings. "There are thousands of digital health startups out there and we all know how challenging it is to sift through the noise. MarketConnect Live expedites the procurement process by strategically connecting relevant buyers and sellers who are positioned to engage in commercial discussions." said Indu Subaiya, EVP, Health 2.0, a HIMSS business unit.
Allscripts, a global health IT leader, has joined as this year's exclusive event partner.
