A golf day provides the ultimate strategic networking environment where the formalities of the boardroom fade away, allowing for genuine dialogue. Over 18 holes, you will have the time and space to discuss strategic NHI implementation challenges, build genuine rapport with the architects of our healthcare future, and share visionary ideas on capacitating the next generation.
Influence policy by engaging directly with NHI leaders. Build critical partnerships with potential clients, government stakeholders, and academic partners. Shape the talent pipeline by positioning your organization at the forefront of developing the NHI-ready workforce. Showcase your innovations to the very leaders who will procure them.
The day will culminate in an evening where we unveil the full programme for the main Indaba in May 2026, featuring visionary keynotes, leadership dialogues, expert-led panels, and health entrepreneurship showcases.
Your participation is essential to launch this mission successfully. By attending, you move beyond transactional conversations and become a co-architect of a resilient, skilled, and youth-led healthcare ecosystem.
