Arab Health 2023
Earlier this month, the Department for Business and Trade formally launched the Life Sciences Innovator Showcase at Arab Health. Eight of our showcase companies attended and they established promising relationships with potential investors and collaborators from around the world.
Event overview
Being part of the DIT’s Innovator Showcase at Arab Health was immensely helpful, both in terms of providing a platform for 52North and in enabling us to navigate and maximise business opportunity at one of the world’s largest health conferences in an organised and focused way. We’ve established some excellent relationships and are incredibly excited at the opportunities that have been opened for us that will ultimately enable us to bring Neutrocheck® to cancer patients across the Arab world.52North

As a Life Science Innovation Showcase finalist, DIT provided a significant opportunity for us to increase awareness for CELOX PPH™, a unique and ground-breaking British innovation to help address the leading cause of maternal mortality worldwide, through engagement with medical experts across key global markets, introductions with new sales channels and the opportunity to engage in networking events and presentations to audience representation from around the world.
