Bali to host International Medical Conference 2023
This is the first time the conference will be hosted in the country
From 10–13 November 2023, the International Medical Conference 2023 (IMC 2023) will be held in Bali.
Discussions among global medical experts and practitioners will take place at this inaugural event.
Chairman of IMC 2023, Professor Taruna Ikrar, speaking at a press conference in Sanur, said: “The First International Medical Conference held in Bali hopes to serve as the first event that will become an annual event on Bali’s calendar of conferences and conventions.”
It will be hosted at the Bung Karno Convention Center in the new Bali International Hospital (BIH) within the 41.26-hectare Special Economic Zone.
“Since Bali is a top international tourism destination, why not incorporate a medical aspect in this demonstrated popularity? We seek to secure Bali’s reputation in the future as both a tourism and medical destination,” added Ikrar.
The conference is supported by all Indonesian tourism organisations, as well as government support from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Tourism and the Creative Economy, the Ministry of Health, the Investment Coordinating Board, the National Body for Disaster Mitigation, and the Provincial Government of Bali.
