For the last five consecutive years, ISMH has held a high-level global conference, Men’s Health World Congress (MHWC), first initiated to educate the world on the importance of men’s health issues and bringing together multiple disciplines. These include urology, cardiology, endocrinology, oncology, gerontology, psychiatry, psychology, sexual and reproductive medicine, and public health.

The ISMH’s mission is to improve the health of men and empower them to pursue healthier lives and is regarded as the global hub of information, education, networking, exchange and fulfillment of all needs of health professionals concerned with men’s health. “The reason for our great interest in men’s health is the overwhelming evidence from many scientific studies of the significant disparity in gender health,” comments Dr. Ridwan Shabsigh, ISMH President and Chairman, Department of Surgery at St. Barnabas Hospital, Professor of Clinical Urology at Weill-Cornell School of Medicine, Cornell University, New York. “We are delighted to have partnered with Kenes. I am confident that we’ve chosen a strong and viable partner to manage our meetings and beyond. The success of our events and promoting our society in the long term, will help draw attention to our cause, making men fundamentally aware of the rise of affliction and disease.”
Erica Serbin, Business Development Manager, Kenes Group, USA, added, “The US market is primed and ready to get on board and join the millions of men of all ages who are embracing good health regimes. We are working hard to make MHWC 2017 an informative, vibrant and memorable event for health professionals, clinicians, researchers and other key players in the industry.
