Generex Biotechnology Corporation announced its participation in the Arab Health Congress 2009 on January 26 - 29 at the Dubai International Convention & Exhibition Centre
Generex Biotechnology Corporation, the leader in drug delivery for metabolic diseases through the inner lining of the mouth, today announced its participation in the Arab Health Congress 2009(http://www.arabhealthonline.com/congress/index.html) taking place January 26 - 29 at the Dubai International Convention & Exhibition Centre. Generex is participating in the congress through its Middle Eastern branch office, Generex MENA (Middle East and Northern Africa), which received a Commercial License from the Government of Dubai, United Arab Emirates in 2008 and opened an office in Dubai Healthcare City.
The Arab Health exhibition and congress is the region's premier event for the Middle East, bringing healthcare manufacturers, wholesalers, dealers and distributors together with some of the most important and influential decision-makers in the Arab world. Established over three decades ago, the exhibition is generally viewed as a "must attend" global event in the healthcare calendar and offers an ideal environment for companies to showcase their products in one of the fastest growing and most lucrative healthcare markets in the world.
The 2008 edition of Arab Health showcased products and services by more than 2,200 exhibitors representing over 65 countries and attracting more than 45,000 participating healthcare professionals from all over the world. Arab Health also features the world's largest and most comprehensive conferences programme - Arab Health Congress 2009. The 2008 Congress featured 18 internationally accredited conferences, addressed by 400 eminent and internationally acclaimed speakers and hosted more than 5,500 delegates and conference attendees.
The Arab Health exhibition delivers to exhibitors the right balance between dealers and distributors, senior decision makers and end users. Arab Health is the business destination of choice for the Middle East Market estimated to be close to $100 billion per year. Due to the huge increase in the expatriate population, it is also one of the fastest growing regions with an estimated annual growth of 16%.
"It is important that Generex focuses at this time on emerging markets," said Bill Abajian, Sr. Executive Advisor, Global Business Development and Licensing for the Company. "The Generex MENA office is responsible for over 20 countries and distributors of top quality who have already begun commercializing our OTC product line, and out of those countries, eight are actively pursuing regulatory approval for Generex Oral-lyn, the Company's proprietary oral insulin spray product, and have filed the dossier with their respective regulatory authorities. This has been a cumulative effort of the strong team we have put together at Generex MENA."
