Galen Institute Conference - Intelligent Health: Exploring the value of innovation in health care

Mar 25, 2010
We hosted another fabulous conference in our series about the value of innovation in health care yesterday in Washington. Our terrific team at the Galen Institute put together a dynamite list of speakers who talked about the remarkable new technologies that bring us the medical miracles we have come to expect from our health sector.

But these will certainly be threatened by the suffocating government bureaucracy of ObamaCare, patent rights being seized by foreign governments, and the reluctance of investors to support the huge and expensive risks of developing new medicines and technologies if government bureaucrats can arbitrarily block their entry to market.
