Shirley Lim explains the benefits of this network: “The demand for healthcare is increasing across Asia, and at the same time, the topics of care and inclusion are gaining relevance. We provide the marketplaces to meet this demand and advance these important issues. With MEDICARE ASIA, we will continuously enhance and expand this portfolio. Customers will benefit from harmonized offerings in Asia that are tailored to regional needs, central points of contact and even stronger business platforms – both in Asia and Düsseldorf.”
Initial Successes
An example of an initial cross-trade fair activity within the MEDICARE ASIA network is the collaboration between GITEX, the world’s largest tech and start-up show in Dubai, MEDICAL FAIR ASIA and MEDICAL FAIR THAILAND. The new partnership will see the “GITEX Digi-Health 5.0 Asia” conference being held in co-location with MEDICAL FAIR THAILAND in 2025 and MEDICAL FAIR ASIA in 2026. This collaboration fosters synergies: GITEX participants can explore medical innovations, while healthcare attendees gain insights into tech. This represents the future-oriented approach of MDfA: Opening up promising new markets for the healthcare industry, unexpected partnerships and synergies with tech/digital companies, exciting discoveries and inspiration.
All parties benefit from "Messe Düsseldorf for Asia" and MEDICARE ASIA. For local and national companies, the Asian trade shows are essential business and growth platforms. International companies get an opportunity to present themselves to targeted regional markets. Düsseldorf’s world leading trade fairs offer both groups a chance to meet the international industry. These diverse opportunities make Messe Düsseldorf's exhibitions particularly attractive and ensure their leading position in the future.
