Healthcare IT Industry Gives a Positive Assessment of conhIT 2013

conhIT 2013Exhibitors and trade visitors have given a positive assessment of conhIT, Europe's largest event for healthcare IT. That is the result of a survey on conhIT 2013 which polled every exhibitor and visitor following the event. The results have been summarised in two brief analyses which have now been publicised on the conhIT website.

Around 90 per cent of the exhibitors took home a good overall impression of conhIT and intend to be back in 2014. The feedback from trade visitors was similarly positive. Thus, 95 per cent rated conhIT as "important" or "very important." 92 per cent of the visitors, more than three-quarters of whom were decision-makers, said they would recommend conhIT to their business partners or colleagues.

A film on conhIT provides impressions of this year's event for the healthcare IT sector. This is available for downloading from the website, along with videos of selected events on the first day and presentations of the twelve sessions held at the Congress.
