Monday, 8th December 2008, our Managing Director, Dr Michel Loots MD, and our Communication officer, Beatrice Gabor, will be present at the WHO Headquarters where they will be holding a presentation on “Client centered information dissemination for world health empowerment”.

The presentation will emphasize the advantages of using low-cost open source models in documents dissemination. It will explain how learning from commercial hosted applications to connect with your user data base will make the task of serving 100.000 “information clients” (doctors, hospitals, researchers, others) semi-automatically, very easily. Consequently, the next step will be to market your information, actively search for new users/ clients, and create automatic follow-up e-mail sequences to increase worldwide targeted outreach and access to your work. Further more, in order to keep the costs and work load to a minimum, Dr Loots will explain how to engage non-profit back-office support and cross-collaborations with other departments.
