As the world‑leading trade fair for medical technology, health technologies and digital health applications with over 3,000 exhibitors and more than 60,000 professional visitors, WHX Dubai is the ideal international platform for Thuringian companies to primarily open up new markets in the Near and Middle East and accelerate technology transfer.
