Al Nimr Expo, one of the leading exhibition management companies in Oman, is organizing a major event called MEDCON, which is intended for the sultanate's rapidly developing healthcare and medical industry as well as for patients who are looking for world-class medical services both locally and abroad.
The inaugural edition of MEDCON will be held on May 10-12, 2011 at the Oman International Exhibition Centre. The three-day event, which is expected to attract the participation of local and international exhibitors, will primarily focus on hospital equipment and technologies, medical tourism, health and wellness products as well as hospital infrastructure and planning.
Commenting on the formal launch of the exhibition, Salim bin Omer Al Hashmi, CEO of Al Nimr Expo, said: "MEDCON 2011 will bring together ministry officials, healthcare professionals, international firms and private companies that are directly involved in the continued development of the vibrant medical sector here in Oman. The event will be an opportunity to showcase the progress already achieved in the industry, and it will also present the wide range of available medical services for dealing with any health problem and for ensuring everyone's well-being."

Patients and the general public will also have much to see in the exhibition with the display of various types of medical services, alternative therapies, health products, cosmetology procedures, weight loss techniques, and all services related to medical tourism.
To secure the participation of exhibitors from all over the world, Al Nimr Expo has signed up international sales representatives who would cover a large number of countries, including China, India, Iran, Pakistan, Jordan, Bangladesh, Singapore, Malaysia, Korea, Italy, Spain, France, the UK, the US and Canada. Attracting exhibitors from as many countries as possible would ensure that a wide selection of new healthcare products, medical equipment and services would be displayed when the exhibition formally opens four months from now.
Apart from the exhibition, MEDCON 2011 will also have a conference that will discuss the newest medical technologies and the latest findings of medical studies, thus making the event useful for the continued medical education of doctors, nurses and other health professionals in the sultanate. Health seminars focusing, among others, on obesity and diabetes will also be organized during the event to increase the public's awareness about these important health issues.
