Record attendance at MEDICA 2011 and COMPAMED
18/11/2011
Health and medical care professionals from across the world have gathered in Düsseldorf, Germany this week for COMPAMED 2011, the leading international trade fair for the suppliers market in medical device manufacturing.
The event is taking place in partnership with the concurrent MEDICA 2011- World Forum for Medicine. The two events have attracted a record number of both exhibitors and visitors, boasting more than 5,000 exhibitors from more than 60 countries, and occupying all 19 halls in the Düsseldorf Exhibition Centre.
Joachim Schäfer, managing director of the organiser of the convention, Messe Düsseldorf GmbH, said that MEDICA and COMPAMED had become central international hubs of supply and demand and were crucial for nearly all people working in medical and hospital sales jobs.
“These facts and figures not only reflect the highly international nature of MEDICA, but also that of the market as a whole," he explained. "It is characterised by a great degree of global exchange of goods and international competition between vendors. More than half of the medical devices, products and instruments produced worldwide are made for export."
The exhibits and seminars at the event are being clearly structured by product group to cover all types of medical care equipment in doctors' surgeries and hospitals. These range from laboratory technology and diagnostics to physiotherapy equipment and consumables and from electromedicine and medical technology to information and communication technology.
