Medicall Expo, Chennai

August 1-3, 2008


Dr S Manivannan
, Executive Director of Kavery Medical Center and Hospital

Healthcare industry is one of the fastest growing sector in India.

As the demand grows, many new hospital projects are in pipeline. 'Medicall Expo' was started to satisfy the equipment requirements of these hospitals. The doctors' conference is normally an ideal place for academic interactions. Very few speciality products are exhibited during these conferences.

A hospital owner has to visit many such conferences to fully equip their hospital. Medicall serves as a 'one-stop-shop' for all the requirements of a hospital. This year's show is the third edition of the expo. More than 150 exhibitors from all over the country are exhibiting various products during the expo.

Interesting products include housekeeping equipment, hospital management softwares, furniture, hospital linen, special construction materials for hospitals, energy saving equipment, hospital project consultants ambulance manufacturers, hospital stationery, teaching aids and mannequins.

The current medical curriculum doesn't train doctors in hospital management, whereas as a matter of fact many doctors end up building their own hospitals. In order to fill this lacunae, a hospital construction seminar and a materials management seminar are organised during the expo.

These seminars will be beneficial for small and medium sized hospital owners to streamline their operations. Medicall will serve as a hospital needs supermarket for Indian hospital owners. The show is on August 1-3 2008 at Rajahmuthiah Hall, Egmore, Chennai.

About the organiser

Medicall Expo is organised by Dr S Manivannan, Executive Director of Kavery Medical Center and Hospital, a 400 bedded Hospital at Trichy, Tamilnadu. This hospital was started eight years ago, with 30 beds by young professionals with limited knowledge about hospital industry. They have faced many hurdles in the course of the growth and wanted to share their expertise with the rest of the medical fraternity. Since Medicall Expo is being organised by people who have been in this field for many years, the content and visitors are expected to be better than at any other previously held event.
