MiG arranges breakfast meetings for the local business people in Göteborg . Representatives from many different companies meet for a breakfast and listens to an interesting lecture on a current and important topic. The topic on the 23rd of January was transplantation, the lack of organs in Sweden and World Transplant Games 2011. 150 people attended the breakfast despite the early morning.

Anders Olsson, chairman of the WTG2011 LOC, told the story of the WTG and what it has meant for the countries that had arranged it before. The auditorium listened with big interest.

- It is very inspiring to see people that have had problems walking 50 meters, run 5000 meters with a smile on their faces. This is a receipt for the games and shows the benefits of a transplantation. It is not the most important to win. Every transplanted athlete has already won their hardest matches ever, says Anders Olsson.

Mikael Olausson, professor and head of the transplant department on Sahlgrenska University Hospital in Göteborg, showed with some, very strong pictures, how successful a transplant can be. No one attending the breakfast meeting on the 23rd of January will forget the pictures of the little girl who had almost all her internal organs replaced. It gave a new dimension to the discussion on organ donation and the need for organs. There was a lot of “Ahhhs” and “Ohhhs” when the pictures came up on the screen.

Mikael Olausson pointed out the importance of the World Transplant Games in Sweden 2011.

- World Transplant Games 2011 is an excellent way to show the Swedes the benefits of transplantations and it is also a very good platform for discussions about the situation in Sweden, explains professor Olausson.

Every participant was presented with a suggestion on how to support the 2011 WTG.
