Sustainability at Medic East Africa

We know how sustainability is increasingly important.

Running Medic East Africa gives us lots of opportunities to improve our impact environmentally, socially, and economically in our region.  We want to make the event more responsible and play a role in helping the market improve its own sustainability by connecting people with the networks and knowledge they want to help solve the big challenges in the healthcare sector.

How can you support sustainability

We are working with exhibitors, event partners and attendees to make Medic East Africa a sustainable
event.  As part of this plan, we have developed suggestions and tips for building a sustainable healthcare event.
