To Leaders in Health Care in British Columbia —

On behalf of the organizing committee for the Health Care Leaders’ Association of British Columbia’s Annual Fall Conference, we would like to invite you to join us on October 20 and 21, 2008 in Vancouver.

Innovation in Health Care: Passion to Progress
October 20,- 21, 2008
The Fairmont Waterfront Hotel, Vancouver

Leaders from all areas of health care and related industries will attend this two-day conference focusing on leadership, systems change and sustainable outcomes

The Hon. George Abbott, Minister of Health, will open the conference. Our
international and local keynote speakers and concurrent session presenters are all experts in their field and provide a variety of perspectives and real-life experiences. We are also pleased to host a group of visiting international health executives
from Australia, New Zealand, England, Scotland, US and Canada. They will be participating as part of a panel as well as attending the conference.

Please take a moment to review the program. Register at the Early Bird rate
prior to September 15, 2008 – we anticipate the conference to sell out once again this year.

We also invite you to join us at the HCLABC Gala Dinner featuring Canadian icon, Rex Murphy, on the Monday night and some of the social networking events on the Sunday prior to the conference. Details are outlined in this website.

We look forward to you joining us at this exciting conference where you will tap in to your “passion for progress” as we lead health care innovation in BC.
