LEBANON, TN – Health Connect Partners, a leading organization for bringing hospital providers and suppliers together through industry-specific conferences, recently held its signature Online Reverse Expo with overwhelming success to kick off the 2024 conference season.
Over three days, February 6-8, Health Connect Partners was able to facilitate a total of 2,328 connections between providers and suppliers in the markets of Pharmacy, Radiology, Supply Chain, and OR/Surgical. With each meeting extended to 14-minutes this year, over 543 hours of one-on-one meetings were held within less than three business days (~24 hours in total).
“In today's crucial healthcare landscape, fostering connections is paramount, and our Health Connect Partners Online Reverse Expo platform facilitated just that,” said Jason Green, Partner & Chief Sales Officer. “A huge thank you to all the Hospital Leaders who actively participated, ensuring continued collaboration and innovation. Additionally, I would like to extend my gratitude to our HCP team who continue to masterfully orchestrate meaningful connections between the right people at the right time.”
Since 2020, HCP’s online platform has offered Suppliers the ease and access to key decision-makers they may not otherwise connect with given the fast-paced nature of healthcare. Michael Gitomer with Azurity Pharmaceuticals shared, “Thanks to HCP for what you have created in bringing Hospital Providers and Industry together to have meaningful discussions. The HCP team is always thinking of ways to improve its product and increasing the time from 9 to 14-minutes really helped to create opportunities to schedule follow-up meetings on our own. Companies are crazy if they do not see the value in Health Connect Partners meetings and conferences.”
Dr. Mark Cohen, President and Founder at the National Recall Alert Center added, “The Online Reverse Expo provides the most amazing opportunity we ever had in such a concentrated period. Imagine, where else could we ever spend 14 unadulterated minutes - audio and video - one-on-one - with the full attention of a potential hospital buyer? And then, within one full minute later, be in front of another hospital-confirmed buyer for another full 14 minutes? This repeated itself 20 plus times over three days. Although it is too early to determine the financial results, it might have been the best marketing spend with the greatest impact we've ever had with Health Connect Partners, and we strongly suggest others consider this amazing opportunity.”
Next for Health Connect Partners is its In-Person events scheduled for this spring in Dallas, Texas. With a full schedule of educational and networking opportunities, HCP will welcome the Hospital Pharmacy Industry to the Hilton Anatole, April 8-10 followed a month later by the Radiology, Supply Chain, OR/Surgical, and Nursing Home markets May 20-22, 2024.
