Successful staging of Medical Fair India 2025

April 29, 2025
With more than 17,970 professional visitors from 28 countries and over 400 exhibitors from 15 nations, the 30th edition of Medical Fair India confirmed its status as the country’s premier platform for the medical and healthcare industry. Held at Bharat Mandapam (Pragati Maidan) in New Delhi, this year’s event marked three decades of healthcare innovation, collaboration and industry transformation.

Medical Fair India 2025 lived up to its reputation to bring together the best in global and Indian healthcare. Over three days, the trade show hosted key stakeholders from across the healthcare ecosystem — from policymakers and innovators to medical device manufacturers, hospitals, tech startups and researchers.

Exhibitors from China, Czech Republic, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Netherlands, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, UAE, UK and the U.S. showcased their innovations on 15,000 square meters of exhibit space, displaying everything from cutting-edge medical technologies and laboratory equipment to rehabilitation solutions and hospital infrastructure tools. The trade fair featured country Pavilions from Taiwan, China and South Korea.

Commenting on the event’s success, Ajay Kumar Gulati, General Manager, Messe Düsseldorf India, said: “With each edition, Medical Fair India continues to expand in both scale and influence. The 30th edition has far exceeded expectations, creating valuable connections and propelling the industry forward. Thanks to the unwavering support from our partners and the medical community, we are confident about the future and excited to continue advancing this vital platform for the healthcare sector.”

Gernot Ringling, Deputy Regional Head, Messe Düsseldorf for Asia added: “Medical Fair India 2025 reaffirmed India’s position as a powerhouse in Asia’s rapidly transforming healthcare landscape. The strong international participation and dynamic domestic presence speak to the country’s growing influence—not just as a market, but as an innovation driver in MedTech and digital health. With a population of over 1.4 billion, rising healthcare demands, and a digital-first approach to innovation, India stands at the intersection of need, scale, and technological ambition—making it one of the most relevant and promising healthcare markets in the world. As the global focus shifts from West to East, platforms like Medical Fair India are essential in enabling cross-border collaboration, connecting healthcare stakeholders with India’s expanding ecosystem of manufacturers, innovators, and investors. At Messe Düsseldorf for Asia, through our MEDICARE ASIA strategy, we are committed to strengthening these connections and shaping the future of healthcare exhibitions across the region.”

Emphasizing the events’ importance for the Indian market, Christian Grosser, Director Health & Medical Technologies, Messe Düsseldorf, stated: “The medical technology market in India is growing in all segments and, depending on the study, now has an impressive volume of 14 billion dollars. As the organizer of MEDICA and Medical fair India, we have been registering a noticeable increase in interest in the Indian market among our customers for around two years. They want to tap into this market and establish themselves there in the long term. The medical technology supply industry is also increasingly coming into focus: The Indian market is becoming more and more attractive for suppliers, component manufacturers and OEMs as local production and demand for high-quality intermediate products continue to rise. This confirms the country's strategic importance as an emerging MedTEchhub and underlines the role of Medical Fair India as the central market and business development platform for the medical technology industry.”

A special highlight was the “Make in India” Pavilion, organized by the Association of Indian Medical Device Industry (AiMeD). “Medical Fair India continues to serve as a key platform for showcasing India’s medical manufacturing capabilities. This year, we’ve seen significant growth—our ‘Make in India’ Pavilion has expanded from 30 to 44 exhibitors, covering over 500 square meters, marking a 30% increase. Additionally, the number of Indian manufacturers has crossed 300, with participation from 15 countries. The show is a testament to India’s growing influence in global healthcare and our industry’s ability to deliver cutting-edge, locally-made solutions”, commented Rajiv Nath, Managing Director at Hindustan Syringes & Medical Devices Ltd, Forum Coordinator at AiMeD (Association of Indian Medical Device Industry) and Chairman of the Advisory Committee, Medical Fair India 2025.

Other special exhibits included FTR4H (Future for Health) with the live Startup Pitch Competition, attracting innovators in telemedicine, health data analytics, AI-based diagnostics, and wearable health tech as well as the Rehaindia Pavilion, presenting rehabilitation products and technologies aimed at empowering people with disabilities.

The exhibits were supported an ancillary program including three conferences (The Voice of Healthcare 9th International Conference, the 6th ClinLab Conference and the SMART Hospitals Conference) as well as the 15th MT India Healthcare Awards.
