The
purpose of the Nigeria – Ireland trade mission is to introduce and expose Nigeria
medical industries to the rapidly expanding and innovative healthcare sectors
in Ireland and to assist Nigeria medical industries in pursuing opportunities
in Ireland.
The healthcare system in
Ireland is considered to be of a comprehensive form, with a public health
service funded by the government and an expanding private health care and
medical service. Individuals who are resident in Ireland for at least one year
are entitled to receive health care through the public healthcare system
managed by the Health Service Executive (HSE).
As an important element of national security,
medical and healthcare system not only functions to provide adequate and timely
medical care but also track, monitor, and control disease outbreak. The
Nigerian healthcare has suffered several down-falls. Despite Nigerian's
strategic position in Africa, the country is greatly undeserved in the healthcare
sphere. Health facilities (health centers, personnel, and medical equipment)
are inadequate in this country, especially in rural areas. While various
reforms have been put forward by the Nigerian government to address the wide
ranging issues in the health care system, they are yet to be implemented at the
state and local government area levels.
The
Nigeria – Ireland trade mission is seeking to readdress the healthcare service impediments.
However, in doing so it will focus on innovative health and medical services, including
advanced techniques and instrumentation, as well as the translation of medical
research to health outcomes. Relevant areas of interest include life science, practice
based research, advanced clinical practice, workforce training and regional
delivery of health services.
The
Nigeria – Ireland trade mission is targeting representatives from medical
industries, medical research organizations, institutions and the government.
The mission will include conferences, tailored meetings (B2B, B2C) and
networking events. Through these activities, the trade mission represents a
valuable opportunity for delegates to network and form partnership.
The Nigeria-Ireland Trade Mission is powered by Globe Chamber of Commerce and Industry in conjunction with Trade Nigeria.
