Given
the increasingly prominent role that healthcare plays in business and
national spending, Columbia Business School strives to be an
outstanding source of education, research, and talent development in
the field. The Healthcare Industry Association strives to accomplish
part of this broader mission with the following goals for its
annual conference:
• Highlight current key issues and forward looking trends in the healthcare industry;
•
Provide a productive networking and educational opportunity for
students, alumni, and practitioners in the healthcare industry;
•
Increase awareness of Columbia Business School’s interest and
commitment to healthcare in all industry sectors including:
pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, medical devices, payors, providers,
healthcare services, consulting, investment banking, private equity
& venture capital.
In
this year’s conference we invite leaders from the spectrum of
both business and academia to focus our panel discussions on four value
drivers for the healthcare industry: Deal-making strategies to enhance
competitive position, Innovations in managing costs and healthcare
outcomes, Marketing strategies in changing healthcare marketplace and
Opportunities and Challenges for Global Healthcare firms.
