COMPLEMENTARY Medicines Australia (CMA) focused on promoting and celebrating industry growth at its fully sold-out National Conference and Industry Awards in Sydney yesterday, "the premier event of the Australia complementary medicines sector".
Speaking at the CMA Annual Conference, ceo Carl Gibson said, "Ours is an industry where tradition meets innovation, where creativity contributes to improved healthcare, where society benefits from our imagination and our inspiration.
"This is why our conference theme this year invites delegates to 'Think Big'."
The conference saw delegates gather from a large cross section of industry: manufacturers, sponsors, marketers, practitioners, retailers, researcher, academics and product innovators.
Gibson said, "The Australian industry has grown to revenues of $4.9 billion," with exports more than doubling in the last two years.
The China Chamber of Commerce for Import & Export of Medicines & Health Products sent a delegation which of course represented a huge market for past and future growth, Gibson said.
