WPC's European and Asia-Pacific business development teams continue to receive a significant amount of interest globally.
"For international companies looking to create or expand their U.S. presence, New York offers many benefits," said Michael Resnick, Executive Vice President of World Product Centre. "With 480 acute care facilities within 300 miles, half of all U.S. teaching hospitals located in the region, and a high density of practicing physicians and other clinicians in this area, leveraging World Product Centre for regional, and ultimately national, sales and marketing activities offers enormous opportunity. Not to mention that a half-billion business visitors and tourists are expected to visit New York City across the next decade."
Leaders among the largest health care providers in the country agree that WPC will be a highly advantageous venue.
"World Product Centre offers an indispensable tool that health care professionals need to further elevate the bar in commercial partnering, technology assessment, education, and quality standards," said Clayton McWhorter, former president and COO of Nashville-based Hospital Corporation of America.
Site excavation will begin October 2009. World Product Centre is scheduled to break ground in early 2010, and open in late 2013.
