COMPAMED 2021 and MEDICA 2021
to Start up Again as In-person Events
The plans for MEDICA 2021 in Düsseldorf, the world's no. 1 nmedical trade fair, and COMPAMED 2021, the international main event for nmedical technology suppliers which is held in parallel, are being rampedn up. Both events will take place at the exhibition halls of Messe nDüsseldorf from 15 - 18 November. They are closely linked with ncomprehensive digital offers and services.
Expressing ntheir anticipation, authoritative experts and decision-makers of the nhealthcare industry have clearly committed to participating on site. In an current survey of several thousand international MEDICA and COMPAMED nvisitors from previous years, three quarters stated expressly that they nintend to attend this year's trade fairs. With a specific focus on nGermany and the neighbouring European countries, these visits are a nfixed point on the agenda, as three quarters of the survey participants nfrom these countries (with particularly easy travel options) also want nto come to Düsseldorf.
The medical technology industry is equallyn positive about the events. "Our partners and the trade associations nstand firmly behind the trade fairs and appreciate the value of nin-person events. The exhibitors are very interested in participating nand are delighted to see all of the important industry decision makers nand exchange ideas in real life again at Messe Düsseldorf, after so manyn months of exclusively digital contact with business partners and npotential customers," says Erhard Wienkamp, Managing Director of Messe nDüsseldorf, based on his many conversations with participants.

Looking Forward to the Trade Fairs
Exhibitorsn will bring their comprehensive portfolios of medical products, devices nand instruments, including all the stages in their development, nproduction and distribution processes, to present at MEDICA 2021 and nCOMPAMED 2021.
Based on our experience with the events which weren held entirely online in November 2020 due to safety reasons (but still ndrew a total of 45,000 unique users from approximately 170 countries andn 405,000 page views), programme items that are in high demand will be noffered on site, as well as being accessible and viewable for nparticipants online via simply structured ticketing.
This appliesn for the forums which are integrated into the themed segments of the ntrade fair, such as: the MEDICA CONNECTED HEALTHCARE FORUM (including nthe MEDICA Start-up COMPETITION and the Healthcare Innovation World nCup), MEDICA HEALTH IT FORUM, MEDICA TECH FORUM, MEDICA LABMED FORUM andn the MEDICA ECON FORUM, brought to you by Messe Düsseldorf and the nTechniker Krankenkasse (TK, a German health insurance fund). At nCOMPAMED, the following forums are on the programme: the COMPAMED nHIGH-TECH FORUM by IVAM with a special focus on the microtechnology and nnanotechnology sectors and the COMPAMED SUPPLIERS FORUM by DeviceMed, nwhere the content is focused on the entire development and manufacturingn field.
In addition to these highlights, a programme of several non-stage events at the epicentre of the trade fair will also be on noffer. Holders of the relevant tickets can follow the talks and ndiscussions simultaneously via livestreams on the industry portals nMEDICA.de and COMPAMED.de.
Further highlights of MEDICA 2021's nprogramme are the 44th German Hospital Conference, the main event for ndirectors and managing executives of German clinics, and the conferencesn DiMiMED and MEDICA MEDICINE + SPORTS CONFERENCE that will be held in nEnglish. These conferences will gather together experts in the fields ofn military and disaster medicine and the who's who of sports medicine andn science at the venue in Düsseldorf.
