| Over 4,000 exhibitors at 40th anniversary of Medica At the 40th anniversary of Medica, International Trade Fair with Congress, around 4,000 exhibitors from 70 nations will present their innovations on 1.2 million square feet of net exhibit space. A total of 700 of these companies are new exhibitors. Medica will take place from November 18 - 21, 2009 at the fairgrounds in Düsseldorf, Germany. Medica bridges the gap between technical solutions and their application by combining the trade fair with integrated "theme parks" such as Medica Media (Telemedicine/Medical IT), Medica Vision (Innovation Forum of the Research Institutes) and the Physiotherapy Forum as well as with the Medica Congress and the 32nd German Hospital Conference. For the first time, the Medica Congress will include an international lecture series, with several presentations held in English. The Congress will cover a wide range of topics - from medical imaging and heart surgery to palliative medicine. Exhibit categories at Medica 2009 will include the latest products for in-patient and out-patient care: electro medicine/medical device technology, laboratory equipment/diagnostics, physiotherapy/orthopedic technology, medical products (commodities and consumer goods), information and communication technology as well as textiles, medical furnishings, interior design and building management technology. A hallmark of Medica is the high international attendance. Of the 137,000 visitors at Medica 2008, approximately 55,000 came from outside of Germany (from over 100 different countries). On the exhibitor side, 70% of the companies were from countries other than Germany. write your comments about the article :: © 2009 Exhibition News :: home page |
