| Event Summary: | ||||
|
Arab Health is the largest healthcare show in the Middle East, with over a 30-year history of offering companies the opportunity to showcase their products in one of the fastest growing and the most lucrative healthcare markets in the world.
Arab Health showcases over 2,200 companies attracting almost 40,000 visitors, mostly from the Gulf States, the Levant, the Indian subcontinent, Egypt and North Africa. Representatives from over 65 countries, including 30 country pavilions, attracted regional leaders and key players in local healthcare. Over 150 U.S. exhibitors showcased their products in Arab Health 2012.
Arab Health serves a market region that has traditionally meant solid business for U.S. companies. As countries expand their local medical systems to keep up with patient demand, the need for high quality medical equipment continues to increase at an estimated fifteen percent annually.
Held in conjunction with a multi-track healthcare congress, Arab Health is open to professional visitors, dealers and distributors who attend the show to learn about the latest developments and source new products. U.S. companies who attended the show last year reported that they received quality inquires and conducted excellent business.
Any U.S. medical company interested in expanding its export sales to grow should participate in this premier event in the region. The U.S. Commercial Service does extensive client counseling for U.S. companies attending this show. Register for this exciting event early as space sells out. |
