More than a few of you may have heard me say this in-person lately, but I think it may be true: The most lucrative sector in mobile health
today just might be the events business. Events are literally on top of each other this fall. Here are the ones MobiHealthNews will be attending as well as a few other events of note.FNIH mHealth Summit:
Washington, DC. Given the announcement this week that William Henry “Bill” Gates III will be keynoting the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health’s mHealth Summit in November, it’s worth discussing this one upfront. Gates joins media mogul and UN Foundation financier Ted Turner as a keynote speaker of the increasingly prestigious event. MobiHealthNews is proud to be the official media sponsor of the event — we’re also running a concurrent session track. Be sure to let us know if you’re interested. Register hereHIMSS Health Insurers

The network operating across country borders, will improve
access to diagnostic services so that vulnerable populations in cross
border areas will be able to make optimal use of internet and mobile
communications....... Laboratories are currently the weakest link in
the region’s public health defenses, seriously hindering each country’s
ability to confirm and respond in a coordinated manner to disease
outbreaks. By bolstering diagnostic and surveillance capacities, the new
multi-country laboratory network will help to identify potentially
devastating disease outbreaks at an early stage and enable countries to
act quickly to prevent the rapid spread of diseases across borders....For information on the World Bank in Africa, go to
