MI founder Dr Wajih Rizvi, in this regard, said: "Previously, we have organised our global conventions in countries like USA, Canada, UK, Barbados, India, Iran, Iraq, and, now, we are coming to Pakistan for the very first time after the peace and security situation of our country has improved. It is now conducive to holding such international events."
"We will have elaborated sessions on different fields of health care profession. There is a whole army of global medical experts whose goal is to transfer the latest technology to Pakistan, attain the trainers and facilitate a dialogue to benefit Pakistan, the region and the world at large. One major focus of our conference will be career counselling for medical students and graduates in Pakistan, to help them chose the right paths for further education and practice. MI has been doing this for last 25 years," Wajih said.
