U.S. and Arab relations rooted in commerce and enterprise are historic and grounded in tradition and mutual interest. These unique relations across the Atlantic have influenced and shaped strategic healthcare partnerships, strengthened alliances, supported B2B and public-private partnerships.
 

The C3 U.S. – Arab Healthcare Summit 2017 assembled business leaders, policy makers, educators and healthcare professionals from the Arab world and the United States to bolster and promote U.S. and Arab world initiatives that are focused on the most up-to-date healthcare topics including infrastructure, the shift from communicable diseases, the future of primary healthcare, and cooperative assistance for knowledge transfer.

In short, the C3 U.S. – Arab Healthcare Summit 2017 addressed resources, research and access to the best healthcare services in order to improve survival from disease and the quality of life based on the exchange of knowledge and employment opportunities between the two regions.
