Bio-economic Prospects in the Oil Fields: Fueling a New Pipeline of Opportunity in the Middle East and North Africa
The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is a diverse, complex, dynamic tapestry of contrasts. MENA countries are pouring resources into healthcare at a time when the West and many BRIC countries are straining to control costs.
Many MENA countries are beginning to address the innovation gap and are developing a knowledge-based workforce, leading to new opportunities for healthcare companies.
Shift Health Principal Dr. Rami Batal and Associate Dr. Michael Julius explored these opportunities at the BIO Convention 2012 as part of an expert panel chaired by Shift Health President Dr. Ryan Wiley.
This paper offers an introduction to emerging opportunities in MENA.
