(3) BIG reasons to attend:
Reason #1: This will be the first conference
of its kind to take place after the Presidential Election

of the next President. You will hear early and insightful
predictions from insiders on what the new Administration
holds in store for the industry.
Reason #2: The conference opens on Tuesday,
January 27th and continues through noon on Wednesday,
January 28th featuring a full slate of speakers and topics
representing the top players and most relevant issues
relating to the business of healthcare.
Reason #3: At the conclusion of this
conference, the Nashville Health Care Council will host
a luncheon panel discussion -- Wall Street's View on Prospects
for the Health Care Industry. The annual Council program
is expected to draw 450 Council members and non-members
including top executives from the Nashville area's health
care, financial, legal and business communities. Attendees
of the iiBIG conference are invited to register and attend.
Reservations and luncheon's fee(s) must be arranged separately
with the Council. For further information please contact

The
Nashville Health Care Council is an association
of health care industry leaders working together to further
establish Nashville's position as the nation's health
care industry capital. Founded in 1995 as an initiative
of the Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce, the 160-member
Council fosters the continued growth of Nashville's health
care industry by creating a supportive operating environment
for existing, start-up and relocating health care businesses.
The Council's Leadership Health Care (LHC) program was
formed in 2001 to foster the talents of the next generation
of health care leaders. For more information, please visit

business development opportunities at
iiBIG’s Investment
and M&A Opportunities in HEALTHCARE second-to-none.

from Nashville’s health care, investment and business
community!
CONFERENCE
OVERVIEW:
iiBIG’s Investment
and M&A Opportunities in HEALTHCARE in Nashville
– January 27-28 at Nashville’s Downtown Convention
Center - occurs at an exciting time for investors
and other deal-makers seeking lucrative gains in the dynamic
healthcare market. And with a brand-new Administration
office in Washington, you will hear from knowledgeable
insiders on what to expect in terms of healthcare policy,
and how it will affect deal-making in this sector.
This year’s conference will focus on the latest
developments and issues in healthcare transactions from
the perspective of both strategic and financial buyers
– as well as insights from leading healthcare corporate
development officers. Leaders from all these perspectives
will address issues like:
-
How are healthcare deal-makers adapting to the turmoil
in the credit markets?
-
How will changes in state and federal healthcare policy
affect the business?
-
Which
segments of the healthcare industry offer the greatest
opportunities?
A
recent study, M&A in Challenging Times, conducted
by a leading global commercial finance company, reveals:
-
55%
of senior-level finance executives from U.S. & Canadian
middle market healthcare companies consider acquisitions
to play a major role in their business strategy.
-
46%
of healthcare respondents said that gaining market share
was a motivator for their latest acquisition.
Successful
execution of deals in the healthcare sector – as
in all areas – requires an experienced team of in-house
executives, and talented external advisors providing the
most innovative financial, legal, valuation, due diligence,
tax, accounting and other professional services. Healthcare
corporate development executives will be joining these
deal-making leaders at this conference.
