Dear Friends,
It is our great honor and pleasure to invite you to participate in the 14th Asia–Pacific
Federation for Clinical Biochemistry and Laboratory Medicine Congress in Taiwan in
2016. It is the first time such a great event to be hosted by the Chinese Association for
Clinical Biochemistry (CACB) in Taiwan.
The 14th APFCB Congress is anticipating more than 1,000 participants including
researchers, specialists and industry representatives from 50 different countries, with
approximately 115 booths built onsite. As previous congresses, we will have sponsored

all corners of the world. Through 14th APFCB Congress, the companies will also have a
chance to obtain the latest research results and data.
Why should you support?
1. Demonstrate your company’s leadership in the field of Clinical Biochemistry
and Laboratory Medicine
2. Extensive visibility to 1000+ participants from around the world
3. Great opportunities to network with experts and basic scientists
4. Access to highly targeted group within your practice area
5. Expanded value due to intensive promotional communications
6. Exhibit and distribute your marketing and promotional materials
