London forMedical Meetings #LondonIsOpen for Medical and Healthcare Industry Meetings Thank you for considering London for your next event. As a city that values knowledge and scientific excellence, London is open for all medical and pharmaceutical meetings, events, and congresses.

Home to historic medical breakthroughs and innovative science clusters, London has world-class research centres, universities, and hospitals. Along with Oxford and Cambridge, London makes up the UK’s life sciences ‘Golden Triangle’ of innovation and research. The capital is home to distinguished institutions such as the Francis Crick Institute, the Medical Research Council, the Wellcome Trust and the national Cell and Gene Therapy Catapult.

London hosts two of the world’s top 10 universities, three of the UK’s top 10 leading universities for research excellence and three of the seven Academic Health Science Centres in the UK. The capital’s life sciences ecosystem continues to expand, with new developments such as Imperial’s White City Campus continuing to attract top talent and industry leaders to the city.

London’s unique strengths in life sciences help the city to attract top talent in research and medicine and delegates attending medical and pharma meetings here will be inspired by these leaders in their field. The capital also offers accommodation for every budget and in close proximity to many diverse event venues.

As you are considering London for your next medical or pharma meeting, let the London Convention Bureau team help you with compliance tips, budget questions, accommoda-tion, RFPs or any other enquiries. With a unique partner network, they are the key to unlocking a wealth of expertise, innovation and knowledge for your London event.

Choosing to host your medical meeting in London means your delegates will be motivated, inspired, and will be talking about your event for weeks to come.

Sadiq Khan Mayor of London

Why London for medical & pharmaceutical meetings

The strong medical presence in the capital provides a wealth of opportunity for event planners in the sector. Organisers can enjoy outstanding networking potential and access to the expertise and minds behind impressive innovation and research. London offers the opportunity to do business in a city that ensures achieving medical education objectives. ExCeL London find that life sciences conferences in London receive on average 15-20% more attendance from delegates and exhibitors, when compared to the same event in other cities1.

A centre of excellence MedTech and pharmaceutical organisations Smith & Nephew, GSK and AstraZeneca are just a few of the medical companies that call London home. The city is home to 120 biopharma companies, 1,500 biomedical researchers, 14 teaching hospitals and 50 clinical research centres. In addition, there are almost 90 commercial, research and development, and manufacturing medical companies in and around London. Many key agencies and regulators are also based in London, including the Medical and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency, National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) and Medical Research

Council (MRC). The regulations that make the events industry what it is – safe, reliable, cutting edge and addressing the needs of patients – are created in London. All this helps to make London is one of the preferred international destinations for medical meetings and events.

Part of the Golden Triangle The Golden Triangle links health science centres in three of the capital’s premier academic institutions – University College London, Imperial College and King’s College – with Oxford and Cambridge. They are supported by organisations such as MedCity, which exists to promote and grow the life sciences cluster encouraging life sciences investment, entrepreneurship and industry. A product of this collaboration is the new Francis Crick Institute in Central London, where around 1,250 scientists work in a cutting-edge centre of biomedical research and innovation.

Diverse venues for educational events Inspiring venues are a large part of London’s appeal with phenomenal options in more than 1,000 venues and 153,000 hotel rooms as of 2nd January 2018 to suit any budget and to fit with any programme,

whether educational or corporate. Many medical institutions also have first class spaces, take BMA House or the award-winning Royal College of Physicians, who have versatile space including a medicinal garden to enhance any educational event. The Wellcome Collection is another option that combines venue, library and museum. And with the help of introductions from London & Partners, some of these respected institutions can provide speakers, ensuring your conference is a memorable and inspirational experience.

Flexible for any type of event London has been home to many large medical congresses such as the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference in July 2017 at ExCeL London, welcoming a record-breaking 5,600 attendees from 68 countries; and continues to be the top choice for associations with the European Society of Cardiology annual congress returning in 2021 and attracting over 30,000 heart specialists. But the capital also caters for smaller medical and pharma-ceutical meetings, from training, symposia, product launches to incentives and motivational programmes for internal audiences.

The London Opportunity

1. Start with the London Convention Bureau and our expert team who can offer advice. We know which venues can satisfy your event requirements, and which hotel nearby is the most suitable for your delegates. Whether congress or small board meeting, we have a team who can assist you at no charge. Find more information on our website, or by contacting our team, or try our online medical venue finder tool at conventionbureau.london/medical-meetings

2. If you have a compliance checklist to satisfy, take a look at healthcare-venues.co.uk to see which hotels, services and venues have undertaken specialist training. Some hotels like six of the Radisson Blu Edwardian hotels in Londonhave Healthcare Champions who understand the market, the needs of regularity codes, and can ensure your event planning goes smoothly and that the event is a success.

3. Transport in London is world-class. Not only is it easy to get here, with six international airports including Heathrow with its hub of hotels and healthcare and life sciences companies, but it is simple to use transport around the city as well. With the Elizabeth line opening in 2018, it will take only 44 minutes to get from Heathrow Airport to ExCeL London in the East of London, or 28 minutes to get to Tottenham Court Road in central London.

4. We are proud to say that London’s hospitality sector is fantastically diverse and often multilingual! If your delegates common language is the universal language of English, then London is an ideal city.

It has never been easier to take advantage of London’s wealth of life sciences expertise for your next events.

There are very few cities worldwide where you can engage so many leading life sciences investors and technology companies. Only in London could we have taken advantage of such a strong network of institutions and expertise, providing a level of input that matched our audience. I was delighted.

James McGough, Portfolio Director, Clarion Events

London’s brilliant transport links allow Healthcare Professionals, with busy schedules, easy access into the capital. The vast amount of compliant venues available provides pharma clients with greater flexibility and choice when selecting the right venue for their meeting.

This year saw the International Federation for the Surgery of Obesity and Metabolic Disorders (IFSO) 22nd World Congress taking place in the UK for the first time, held at London’s QEII Centre in partnership with Central Hall Westminster from 29 August to 2 September 2017.

IFSO brings together world leaders in metabolic and bariatric surgery to educate, discuss and collaborate, with a scientific programme at the London event including a two-day International Conference on Sleeve Gastrectomy and 10 parallel scientific sessions during the main congress.

The British Obesity & Metabolic Surgery Society (BOMSS) coordinated the event on behalf of the federation. The successful bid was orchestrated by London &

conventionbureau.london/medical-meetings

QEII and Central Hall were chosen as not only do they provide the facilities for a multi-stream event and exhibition, but the excellent location in London, directly opposite London icons Westminster Abbey and the Houses of Parliament, ensured international delegates could enjoy the experience only London can bring.

Eija Hakkinen, Project Director for IFSO 2017

Partners, with Professional Conference Organiser (PCO) partner TFI Group working closely with events teams at QEII and Central Hall to deliver the five-day event.

For the first time the congress had a non-medical speaker, with Sir Ranulph Fiennes, the world’s greatest living explorer, delivering an inspirational speech at the Presidential Address.

Eija Hakkinen, Project Director for IFSO 2017, said: “The United Kingdom is a centre of excellence for obesity surgery. The British government and National Health Service (NHS) have prioritised obesity and metabolic disorders and as a result the UK, and in particular London, is a knowledge hub for the sector."

“IFSO has been a great project with almost 2,800 international delegates from 82 different countries, an excellent complex scientific programme of over 500 invited speakers and abstract presenters, with over 50 exhibitors. The congress exceeded its original target of 1,800 global delegates as well as succeeded in surpassing its initial sponsorship target by 300%."

Case Study

IFSO 22nd World Congress

The congress exceeded its original target of 1,800 delegates, with 2,800 international delegates attending

The London Convention Bureau really understands the needs of the life sciences industry and how it fits within the various

industry codes in the UK, Europe and globally. The team can help companies find the right partners to deliver high quality educational

meetings through their vast network in the city.

Practical information for your medical meeting A delegate’s ideal meeting will take just under 4 days in-cluding travel and on average event planners spend 25-30% of their budget on travel. So we know that location, accessibility and ease of getting around are important.4

Getting here With six international airports – Heathrow, Gatwick, London City, Stansted, Luton and Southend – London has first-class connections with the rest of the world. It serves 336 destinations in all, supplied by a variety of legacy and low-cost carriers that ensure there is transportation to match every budget. In addition, Eurostar departs from St. Pancras International rail station, giving easy access to the rest of Europe.

Getting around London’s public transport network covers the length and breadth of the city and offers several options. When it opens in late 2018, the Elizabeth line will provide a fast and direct link from Heathrow airport to the centre of London and to ExCeL London. The easiest way for delegates to travel around the city is with an Oyster Card, a contactless smart ticket that gives users a 30% discount across London’s transport network. The new Night Tube has extended London Underground services; it’s now open, giving 24 hour service on most lines on Fridays and Saturdays. Other options include excellent public transport services with buses and Santander bikes, DLR’s driverless trains to Canary Wharf and ExCeL, London’s licensed black cabs or the Thames Clipper. To plan your journey, visit tfl.gov.uk.

Investment brings improvements From 2018, Crossrail – to be known as the Elizabeth line – will increase London’s rail capacity by 10%, radically cut journey times and allow passengers to get across London on one train. In addition, new rail services will make the rest of Europe more accessible, and from late 2017, Eurostar will be operating between London St. Pancras and Amsterdam, stopping at Brussels, Antwerp, Rotterdam and Schiphol Airport. Deutsche Bahn will also be running trains direct from Frankfurt, Cologne, Amsterdam and Rotterdam to London.

VenuesThroughout the brochure you will find our suggestions for venues appropriate to the healthcare sector. Many are assessed independently against sector codes of conduct.
