DALLAS – February 26, 2010 – Market Center Management Company, the management company of leading trade centers and trade events around the world, today announced the tradeshow debut for the Nashville Medical Trade Center: the 2010 edition of the annual HIMSS Conference and Exhibition. HIMSS, or the Health Information and Management Systems Society, is the largest and most significant event in the United States focusing on healthcare IT and management systems professionals.

Nashville Medical Trade Center will showcase its business model inside a custom tradeshow booth (#2102) at the HIMSS exhibition, including a multimedia presentation about its innovative healthcare marketplace that unifies for the first time permanent showrooms, temporary exhibition space, and education and training facilities. The result is a comprehensive global marketplace for healthcare products, solutions and services.

In addition, Nashville Medical Trade Center is sponsoring the Senior Executive Reception, taking place on the opening evening, Sunday, February 28th. The reception is an invitation-only event for senior executives from companies participating in the HIMSS Conference and Exhibition.

“We are thrilled to begin tradeshow participation with HIMSS,” said Bill Winsor, president and CEO, Market Center Management Company. “Their emphasis on innovation matches our commitment to showcasing leading edge advancements across multiple categories of products and services.”

The 1.5 million square foot Nashville Medical Trade Center will feature three components: up to 1200 permanent manufacturer showrooms for healthcare product manufacturers, distributors, and information technology companies; more than 100,000 square feet of temporary trade show space; and conference facilities to accommodate a full annual calendar of trade event, education and training.

“The biggest global tradeshow for healthcare IT is the perfect debut for the world’s first global marketplace for healthcare innovation,” said David Osborn, general manager. “We are anticipating great interest from exhibitors and attendees searching for a breakthrough that will take time, cost and complexity out of the procurement process and create a nexus of commerce and learning.”
