Welcome to the MEDEVAC community's annual international meeting
MEDEVAC is a sector of our industry in constant demand. In the US alone, there are around 400,000 rotary-wing
MEDEVAC transports made annually, and a further 150,000 patients are flown by fixed wing aircrafts.
As the industry prepares for its next challenges, readiness and responsiveness is vital. Our unique platform provides the opportunity for medical service personnel and procurement teams to learn share and connect with solution providers and thought leaders.
The 2018 programme will focus on developing the required capacity to react to humanitarian crises and the casualties of conflict and terrorism. Specifically our agenda will include sessions discussing blood cold chain solutions for foreign theatres, biocontainment units, new rotary platforms and the recruitment and retention of medical personnel.
We look forward to welcoming you to London in October!

- Hear the latest updates and operational case studies from UN peacekeeping operations and understand how multinational operations are continuing to adapt to austere environments in order to best organise your aeromedical resources.
