Early Bird Deadline September 16
Hurry, there's only a few days left until the early bird registration deadline for SNOMED CT Expo 2016. This year's Expo is a can't miss event: amazing regional and international speakers, a sold-out exhibition area, opportunities to network with SNOMED CT experts from across the world...what else could you ask for?
Introducing SNApp
Brand new to the Expo this year is SNApp: a 'hackathon' designed to challenge participants to develop an app using SNOMED CT. Delegates will get the chance to see the teams at work over the course of the Expo, culminating in a vote and prize award at the end of the conference.
Travelling to New Zealand to attend our conference is easy
New Zealand is approximately a 10-hour direct flight from most places in the Pacific Rim, including Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo, the west coast of the USA and it is only a 3-hour flight for neighbouring pacific islands and the eastern seaboard of Australia. Options to fly direct to Auckland (New Zealand’s main international airport) or directly to Wellington with a new Singapore Airlines connection via Canberra commencing this September. Numerous daily flights connect Auckland and Wellington with a 1-hour flight time. Please click here for more information.
