      Communications Announces Health IC Summit
Portland, ME, June 28th, 2005: Diversified Business Communications 
      announces the launch of Health IC: The Summit for Innovation and 
      Convergence in Healthcare, January 23-25th 2006 at the Roosevelt Hotel in 
      New York City. The Health IC Summit focuses on the most significant 
      innovations occurring in healthcare today, showcases the business and 
      convergence opportunities, presents a roadmap for the future and provides 
      a forum specifically geared toward matching today’s most innovative new 
      companies with investors.
 The Health IC Summit will focus on four key areas: REGENERATIVE MEDICINE, 
      MEDICAL INFORMATICS, INNOVATIVE PATIENT CARE, and an INVESTOR FORUM.
 
 Health IC partners and collaborators include: Lab to Wallstreet, Life 
      Sciences Group International, and the International Informatics Institute.
 
 "With the healthcare industry reaching $1.7 trillion and comprising 15% if 
      the U.S. GDP, we have identified new and emerging market categories in 
      which to expand our growing healthcare portfolio", commented Megan 
      Forrester, Managing Director, Health IC Summit. “The Health IC Summit 
      serves the information needs of senior executives, policy leaders and 
      investors by focusing on what is new, what is hot, and which healthcare 
      innovations will have the greatest long term impact."
 
 Diversified has several events serving the complementary and natural 
      health care industries and a portfolio of Canadian events in the primary 
      care market.
 
 “The convergence of relentlessly rising healthcare costs, groundbreaking 
      advances in life sciences, and increasingly sophisticated consumer access 
      to electronic medical information sets the stage for disruptive innovation 
      that will displace traditional providers and enable a new generation of 
      healthcare applications,” said conference chairman, Jack Powers. “The 
      Health IC Summit examines these opportunities in the short, middle, and 
      long term for investors, managers, and policy makers.
 
 Leading up to the event, the Health IC Summit includes the conference 
      chairman’s web blog “HealthcareNBIC.org” with industry experts, keynote 
      speakers, and thought leaders as guest bloggers. NBIC is scientific 
      shorthand for the convergence of nanotechnology, biotechnology, 
      information technology and cognitive sciences.
