IHIF Annual Meeting

Dan Peterson
Cook Medical
IHIF Chairman

Thank you to the IHIF Board and Membership!

2007 was a strong year for the Indiana Health Industry Forum. We took on an ambitious asset mapping initiative, convened discussions around several critical issues affecting the competitiveness of the health and life science industry in the state of Indiana, held a successful annual conference, and produced a second major conference examining the state’s strength in diabetes research. All of this and more was achieved in concert with our partners in industry, government and academia. Since it’s inception in 1994, the Indiana Health Industry Forum has served as the focal point for discussion about the competitiveness of the industry in the state and with the continued support of members and sponsors, 2008 promises even more. Thank you for your contribution to the success of IHIF.
