Bringing the UK Pavilion to the fast-growing Global Health Exhibition, the ABHI is delighted to be extending its support to UK HealthTech SMEs, helping them to enter and grow within this thriving market.

Global Health Exhibition has earned acclaim as the largest annual healthcare gathering in the country. This year’s edition is set to attract 15,000 professional visitors, featuring 120 speakers and 164 exhibitors from 23 countries over three impactful days.

Taking place from 29-31 October in the Saudi capital of Riyadh, the UK Pavilion will provide a dedicated space within the Global Health Exhibition where UK HealthTech innovators can showcase their expertise, strengthen their presence in the market and establish partnerships with key stakeholders.

Strategically positioned next to the Transformation Zone, the heart of the event hosting keynote addresses, product showcases, and plenary sessions, the UK Pavilion guarantees maximum visibility and footfall. With a prime location on the exhibition floor, the Pavilion offers a compelling opportunity for UK HealthTech innovators to connect with prospective partners and expand their reach in the Saudi Arabian market and beyond.

Michelle Michelucci, Head of International Events, ABHI, commented: “Recent years have witnessed Saudi Arabia making monumental strides in enhancing its healthcare infrastructure. We are delighted, therefore, to be offering a UK Pavilion within Saudi Arabia, at Global Health Exhibition 2023.”

Under the patronage of the Saudi Ministry of Health, Global Health Exhibition is poised for exponential growth, making it an unmissable opportunity for UK HealthTech innovators who are keen to engage and flourish within the Saudi healthcare sector.

The pandemic's impact has accelerated the adoption of digital solutions and innovations, giving rise to a booming HealthTech ecosystem in Saudi Arabia. Moreover, government initiatives to modernise the healthcare industry has further fuelled the growth of this market, creating a favourable environment for innovation and investment. As a result, the Health Tech Market is currently one of the fastest-growing sectors in the country.

Demand for top-tier medical devices, diagnostics and digital health technologies has surged, presenting an exceptional opportunity for UK companies to showcase their expertise and establish fruitful partnerships.
Healthcare accounts for 16.4% of Saudi Arabia’s budget expenditure, and the government is encouraging private sector participation in this space. There are plans to set up 20 healthcare clusters by 2030, which presents exciting opportunities for UK suppliers to support such an ambition.

With final stands remaining, UK HealthTech innovators looking to increase their international trade to Saudi Arabia and the wider Middle East are encouraged to act fast to secure their spot amongst the UK’s finest industry players at this year’s event.
