We are proud of the fact that this 144-page
issue of Middle East Health is the largest in
the magazine’s 28-year history. We believe
this reflects both the dynamic state of the
healthcare sector in the Middle East and
our constant efforts to remain the leader
in publications covering healthcare in the
region.
We are also proud to be covering Arab
Health, clearly the paramount healthcare
event in our region. Its scale and
comprehensive coverage of issues has
rightly earned it the title of leader in its field.
But we are also proud of the fact that we are not the official
magazine of Arab Health. That title is a double-edged sword,
carrying with it privileges but also editorial constraint. To be the
official magazine of the event carries with it an obligation not to
partner with other events in the region.
We believe passionately that the healthcare sector in the
region is best served by unfettered coverage of as many events as
possible. We are happy to partner with a wide range of
conferences and exhibitions, such as MenaMeditech in Cairo,
Saudi Hospital in Jeddah and IMD Dubai among others. But not
at the expense of other events. Just as Arab Health is the
paramount exhibition and conference in the region, Middle East
Health is the leader in its field. It is so due to our unmatched track
record in delivering the most comprehensive coverage of events
in the region.
It’s a philosophy that has sustained Middle East Health since
1977 and one recognised and respected in the healthcare sector.
It probably helps account for the size of this issue and explains
why visits to our website – www.middleeasthealthmag.com – have
doubled in the past six months.
Meanwhile, we are updating our database. If you wish to keep
