HMMC Conferences
HMMC is well respected in the industry for its broad-based educational programming offered twice a year at spring and fall conferences.
Held in varied locations in America, HMMC conferences provide a fun, relaxing yet secluded opportunity for HMMC members to gather, connect and learn — and from each other, some of the brightest people in the industry — from CEOs of major corporations inside and outside health care, plus thought leaders, legal experts, award-winning authors and speakers.
The educational component of our conferences consists primarily of group or roundtable discussions. Topics cover a wide range of issues, primarily those with a broad industry perspective. Conferences are lively affairs, and always lead to positive conclusions about how to remedy a problem, develop a strategy or seek more information.
Conferences typically span a two-day period (days and evenings), and include seminars and discussion time, and exciting networking and entertainment events for members, their guests and spouses. In many cases, accommodations allow for extended stays on weekends for relaxation and other purposes.
In addition to the valuable industry insights they provide, HMMC conferences also serve as ongoing training programs for sales and marketing staff. Participants have learned about countless important issues, including:
- Evolving government regulations.
- The complexities of reimbursement and their impact on sales and marketing strategies.
- The complex sales and marketing relationships among distributors and GPOs.
- How to coordinate messages of their companies’ sales and marketing departments.
- How to penetrate overseas markets, and stay abreast of emerging markets here and abroad.
- Ways to identify and educate customers, and own those relationships.
- How to improve leadership skills.
- General self-improvement skills and techniques.
