Special Dossier on the Expansion of Health Care in the Gulf

From June 17, 2013 until September 01, 2013

Casa Árabe is publishing a report on the latest projects started up in the Gulf countries’ health care industry. It can be accessed on the Casa Árabe Economics and Business website.

The countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council have been making important investments in the field of health care in recent years. One of its priorities is to expand and improve upon the offering of health care services, given the increase in its population and purchasing power, at the same time as a greater rate of certain diseases and an increase in the demand for specialized services. In hospital construction projects alone, whether in the planning or construction stages, more than 35 billion dollars will be spent, thereby producing a huge demand for services, equipment, technology and products related with the health care industry.
