Industry Relevance 

Hospitalar is a go-to event for suppliers and buyers, because it makes it a point to cover the entire medical and health value chain. It’s a leader in technological innovation in South America since 1994 as well as a hub for experts and medical engineers to showcase their new findings. The support program is not to be missed! You have a lineup of terrific speakers across technology, innovation, home care, management, clinical engineering and rehabilitation. Between discussions, live demos and workshops, you’ll get an in-depth understanding of current medical trends. 

The trade fair takes place every year at São Paulo Expo Exhibition & Convention Center. The product portfolio has every major product group – furniture, utensils, electromedical equipment, orthosis, prosthetics, rescue equipment, ambulances, vehicle converters, consumer goods, personal care, components, air conditioning and laundry. The exhibition hall is divided into the following sectors: Equipment; IT; Facilities, Infrastructure & Architecture; Diagnostics & Laboratory; Rehabilitation, Home Care & De-hospitalization; Disposables & Orthopedics, and International Pavilions. 

Hospitalar is the right platform to gain recognition and visibility for your products. Now that we’re in the post-pandemic era, medical trade fairs perform a special new role. They reflect how we’re handling the pandemic and how to deal with the new normal. For many buyers, Hospitalar is the best option to source new supplies and exchange experience with peers face to face. 

Who Are You Going to Meet? 

Exhibitors are coming from all sectors. You have distributors and suppliers of hospital equipment and medical technology, but also medications and hospital pharmacies, furniture, uniforms, post-operative recuperation and specialised medical literature. Some names you’ll encounter include LEPU Medical, MediTeQ, Nippon Chemical, NEOS, TANIS TECHNOLOGIA as well as VHMED. 

In terms of the audience, you mostly have access to Brazil natives followed by South American countries. European and Asian countries also have some representation. In total, there are 28 international pavilions – Germany, Canada, Belgium, Argentina, Chile, China, Austria, Korea, Denmark, Egypt, Spain, India, Finland, Italy, France, Pakistan, Uruguay, Malaysia, Peru, Mexico, Thailand, Portugal, Taiwan, Turkey, Norway and the UK. 

Professionals are also employed at all levels in healthcare – doctors, nurses, hospital officers and managers, laboratory and practice technicians, hospital input manufacturers, distributors, healthcare facilities and institutions. Thanks to the fantastic informational program, Hospitalar is also a top destination for medical students, who are just about to enter the workforce. 

Additional Value of Attending 

New companies and startups are more than welcome to share their groundbreaking work. There’s specific areas in the equipment sector for new product launches, demonstrations, and presentations. You can sit through free lectures that help you take note of the emerging technological trends that will shape the market in the near future. This area helps new companies meet with relevant buyers and investors, who are looking for innovative solutions. 

The information programme is not to be missed. All in all, there are over 30 congresses and forums that cover all relevant topics. Perhaps the best known events here include the International Digital Forum, HIMSS@Hospitalar and International Health Services Congress. Though that’s far from the only content you’re able to consume. Organisers have taken a direct step into creating digital content as part of a hybrid approach. 

Ever since the pandemic, you’re able to sign up for Hospitalar Hub, which is the digital platform available to all attendees. The hub enables participants to continue their conversations after the in-person show ends and do business around the year. As a networking tool it’s unrivalled as it holds the information about every single visitor and how to get in touch with them. This is a valuable function as it cuts down on time spent processing sales leads after you return home from the live edition. Plus, you’re able to better prepare for the upcoming edition and connect with specific people before you commit to attend. 

Perhaps the best use for the hub is to continue receiving top-tier content. Organisers provide a steady stream of digital only events between physical editions. Most recently this includes a keynote speaker panel on the topic of the voice of Health in the Political Scenario; and a debate on the topic of "ESG and the impact of financial sustainability on business in the health sector.” You will hear from experts working at the top of their respective sectors.
