Since 1999, the international healthcare events organized by INSEAD and its alumni have provided unique discussion and networking forums for senior decision makers in the healthcare industry.

The INSEAD Healthcare Alumni Summit 2009 continues this tradition by bringing together executives from different sectors of the industry to explore future trends in healthcare.
