HASA CONFERENCE & EXHIBITION 2010
2010, it was at Sun City, North West!
DATES: 28-30 April 2010
The Hasa Conference & Exhibition continued to be a private hospital premier event in South Africa. The 2010 achieved this by getting together South Africa’s thinkers in public health, health economics, nursing and hospital management. The City of the Sun provided the right background for the sector as we look for a new dawn in healthcare. Hasa hosted about 260 delegates and 14 partner companies.
The balmy and picturesque Sun City was just the place to be and the spirit of the private and public healthcare leaders, doctors and specialists and suppliers who met at the esteemed Suites of this hotel were a jovial lot. Many top thinkers in the world of healthcare addressed the gathering on a range of vital issues pertinent to South Africa’s future, and the conference has proved to be both a pace setter and a lightning rod. On the back of the theme – Quality is Excellence this instalment aimed to highlight the best in healthcare that South Africa can offer to the world as we inch closer to the Fifa Soccer World Cup to be kicked of in Johannesburg.
Dr Nkaki Matlala, Hasa Chairperson, set the tone with his well presented key note address paving the way for all the groundbreaking research, analysis and intense discussions by the best minds in the healthcare industry, business management and economics.
